The Community Chest 2025 the Hong Kong & Kowloon Walk for Millions was successfully held on Sunday, 19 January 2025 at the Hong Kong Stadium. Over 100 walking teams and individual walkers took part in the charity walk to raise funds for family and child welfare services supported by the Chest.
The Chest would like to express heartfelt gratitude to Bank of China (Hong Kong) for its full support. Its generosity enables the Chest to allocate all funds raised, without deduction of administration expenses, to 24 member agencies that provide family and child welfare services. Also, the Chest is deeply grateful for the immense support given by the government departments and the volunteers from uniformed groups.
The walk passed through Wong Nai Chung Gap Road, Black’s Link, Aberdeen Reservoir Road and finished at Aberdeen Country Park Visitors Centre. The total distance was approximately 10km and took about 3 hours to complete. Participants who finished the entire walk would receive a certificate of appreciation at the finish point.
