About the Paul CK Wong Memorial Fund

It aims to support full-time geography undergraduate students with two awards of HK$5,000 for each recipient every academic year, particularly for those with physical disability, special educational needs and outstanding academic performance. In the absence of candidates with any physical disability, other outstanding students with remarkable academic attainment and experience in community service will also be considered to receive this fund.

In the previous year, this Memorial Fund has remarkably contributed to enabling a substantial number of geography students with physical disability and special educational needs to strive for academic pursuits.
