HELP for Domestic Workers

HELP for Domestic Workers HELP's mission is to empower migrant domestic workers in Hong Kong to access their rights through education, advice, community and employer engagement.

Our vision is an equal world where all migrant workers have the opportunity to succeed. HELP for Domestic Workers is committed to supporting migrant domestic workers to gain access to justice and receive fair and equal treatment under the law. Since its inception in 1989, we have supported migrant domestic workers through advice, assistance, education and empowerment. HELP also provides a space for employers to seek advice on domestic workers’ rights and entitlements. We equip the employers of domestic workers with knowledge and awareness, so that they can build a mutually beneficial relationship with their domestic worker.

We’re proud to support OCDAHK’s Green Ribbon Campaign, raising awareness of mental health and working to eliminate stigma in Hong Kong and around the world.

As strong advocates for mental health and well-being, we believe everyone should feel seen, heard, and supported. Together, we can encourage open conversations, promote understanding, and help create a more compassionate and inclusive community. 💚

Cora joined our elderly caregiving training hoping to learn practical skills and gain greater confidence in giving more effective, compassionate care for Popo, the 98-year old woman she looks after. 💪🏼💙

But by the end of the training, what stuck with her most was ways to safeguard her mental wellbeing as a caregiver. From managing food schedules to navigating culture and communication barriers, she realised that elderly care can quickly become overwhelming. Through the training, Cora learnt how to balance her caregiving duties while actively looking after her own wellbeing to manage stress, reduce anxiety, and prevent burnout.

This very reason is why self-care is built in our training, so caregivers can take as great of care for themselves as they do for those they care for. ✨

Cohort 2 is now in full swing, and Cohort 3 will open for registrations in December. Stay connected so you don’t miss out on the limited slots! 🙌🏼

From a major legal win for a survivor of workplace abuse, to the tragic Tai Po fire that impacted so many of the families and migrant domestic workers we serve -- 2025 brought many challenges and just as many wins. And with every win and every hurdle, we pause and reflect. How should we respond? What does our community actually need? And are we the ones who should decide that, or are they? 💡

This reflection led us to reimagine how we work altogether, moving towards co-creating programmes with the community, so we show up for them the best we can, in the way they need. 💪🏼

We’re deeply grateful to our donors, partners, and volunteers whose unwavering support and commitment make this work possible. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the migrant domestic worker community, whose trust in us, through moments of crisis and in everyday life, continues to guide and inspire everything we do. 💙

A big thank you to Zamira Monteiro from Amplify Consulting and Kimberly Wong from KimProtein Studio for their partnership in crafting the report.

We are honoured to announce a new partnership with the Philippine OWWA Overseas Workers Welfare Administration to deliver a bimonthly leadership training series for the Filipino migrant domestic worker community. 🤝🏼

The first seminar was led by our Programmes Manager, John Francia, and brought together over 70 migrant domestic workers. The session equipped the community with the knowledge and practical skills to navigate Hong Kong's healthcare system and how they can support their peers in crisis.

Each subsequent session will focus on a new aspect of leadership, enhancing knowledge, building confidence and peer support across the community.

We are immensely grateful for our long-standing partnership with the Philippine Consulate General in Hong Kong, and we look forward to deepening this collaboration further. 💪🏼

Linda had just lost her job when she began feeling unwell. When she visited the hospital, doctors diagnosed her with a medical condition requiring immediate care. But with no contract, a job, or an income, she wasn’t sure what to do and reached out to HELP for advice.

Our caseworkers sat with her, listened, and guided her through every option available. Once Linda had decided on her next steps, we also helped apply for a medical fee waiver with her so cost wouldn't be a barrier to the treatment she needed. Every service and programme we run reaches migrant domestic workers who need it most. 💪🏼

𝐎𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲, we’re celebrating our donors and volunteers - people whose generosity always ensures that help is within reach. 💙

With the support of the , we are implementing the SafeGuard project to address online scam and debt risks - equipping migrant domestic workers with the knowledge and tools to stay safe online and strengthen their financial wellbeing.

Co-designed with the community, SafeGuard is grounded in the lived experiences and challenges that workers face every day.

✅ Cohort 1 has successfully concluded, with strong positive feedback from all 20 participants. These graduates are now Financial First Responders, safeguarding themselves and their peers by intervening early before challenges escalate into crises.

🔜 Cohort 2 is now underway. Further updates on our financial wellbeing initiatives will follow in due course.

☎️💬 For domestic workers experiencing financial difficulties, or employers seeking to better support their workers, please contact us via WhatsApp at +852 5936 3780 and stay informed about upcoming workshops.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the HKEX Foundation for enabling this important work.
