Every parent wants their child to feel secure, succeed at school and have opportunities to build a meaningful future. Rose wants that too for her two children in Hong Kong. But because of her asylum status, she is not legally permitted to work, and covering school textbook costs is a real challenge.
Grassroots Future, a registered Hong Kong charity, is seeking to raise HK$65,000 by 30 Sep 2026 to help more than 30 refugee and asylum-seeking families meet their children’s textbook expenses for the 2026/27 school year. With textbook costs now estimated at around HK$1,800 to HK$2,000 per child for a full school year, even one book list can place serious pressure on a family’s limited resources.
Your gift can help children access the school-prescribed textbooks and learning materials they need to participate fully in class. HK$2,000 can cover the average cost of one child’s essential textbooks for an entire school year. Please donate today.
