The Community Participation Funding Programme organised by the EOC is running for another year and is now open for applications. The submission deadlines for the first and the second batch are 9 March 2018 and 14 September 2018 respectively.
Promoting equal opportunities involves everyone in the community. The funding programme aims at supporting projects initiated by NGOs, community groups and schools that play a part in such promotion. Each project can receive a maximum of HK$50,000. For details on eligibility and application guidelines, please visit the EOC website. A total of two briefing sessions will be organised on 8 February (Cantonese) and 13 February (English) respectively at the EOC’s Wong Chuk Hang Office for interested parties.
