Teach For Hong Kong
TFHK envisions a future where all children in Hong Kong have equal opportunity to learn, grow and realize their potential. Our mission is to nurture future leaders to bring education equity. Through our one-year TFHK Fellowship Program, we recruit and empower the most promising and passionate young leaders to serve in underprivileged schools as full-time teachers. We are now in our 5th year with 36 Fellows, teaching full-time in 17 local underprivileged schools and have served over 20,000 underprivileged students. We are also funded by the Government’s SIE Fund, The D. H. Chen Foundation and The Jockey Club Charities Trust and are thriving as one of the fastest-growing non-profits.
