Construction Charity Fund - Fund Raising - Mahjong Competition on 30 May 2010
Since the Construction Charity Fund has been launched and held with the first of a series of fund raising activities on 26 Feb 2010, the 1st of "慈善麻雀皇大賽" is the next fund raising activity which will be held on 30 May 2010 (Sun).
This Fund was spearheaded by our Legco representative the Hon. Abraham Shek and HKCA, with HKFEMC, HKCIEGU and HKCSA being founding subscribers. Up to now 27 cases have been handled with a total of HK$1.89 Million delivered to victims' families.
A tragic accident happened on 20/4/2010 in which a lift worker was caught between the lift car and the structure of a floor slab. He left behind a family with a widow and 2 young children.
On behalf of your Federation, Chairman Mr Paul Chong delivered a cheque of $100,000 from the 'Construction Charity Fund' to the family on 30/4/2010 - the first case involving our E&M trade though I wish it never happened. Of course this won't relieve the pain of the bereaved woman and children but it really helps a lot to stabilise - removing most of the immediate financial worry typical of families of such nature.
Our Federation earnestly request you and colleagues to support the fund raising. No problem even if you don't enjoy mahjong game, just make a donation in that case.
Attached herewith the invitation letter for your attention and details. Please take action and return the filled Enrollment Form to the organizing committee (建造業分包商聯會) by fax at 2572 6268 on or before 15 May 2010.
