Since Swire began operating in Hong Kong 150 years ago, the group has been steadfast in its commitment to the city – not just as a long-term investor, but as a supportive and caring corporate citizen. The Swire Group Charitable Trust (“Swire Trust”) has launched the funding initiative, TrustTomorrow, as part of our ongoing pledge to give back to the community that has helped us to thrive over the past century and a half.
TrustTomorrow invites you to join us in supporting the underprivileged in Hong Kong. As part of our volunteer team, you’ll be putting into action some of the innovative community service programmes created by Swire Trust’s NGO partners in order to help those most in need.
