We're excited to share that Victoria Street, Assistant Director of Information Technology, represented Mother's Choice as an honoured guest at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. She led a three-hour workshop on "Infrastructure and Talent Development for MEL Organization Practice and Data Management System" for the 2024 cohort of the Jockey Club MEL Institute Project. With just over 60 attendees, we empowered individuals and organisations to create positive change, reinforcing our commitment to our mission: Joining hands with the community to give hope and change life stories of vulnerable girls and babies. Thank you The Chinese University of Hong Kong for your partnership and the opportunity! #MotherchoiceHK #JockeyClubMellnstituteProject

It's been 30 years since the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) came into effect in Hong Kong on 7 September 1994. To see how much we’ve moved forward in prioritising children's best interests, the Hong Kong Committee on Children’s Rights organised a series of conferences. Our Community Ambassador kit ying chan spoke about #adoption at an earlier event, while our CEO, Sky Siu, had the privilege of moderating a panel discussion in September. This session focused on 'Special protection measures for children in deprived circumstances' and featured engaging insights from a teenage refugee, #PatriciaHo; Mr. Leung Siu Kei, Supervisor of the Youth Crime Prevention Centre; and Mr. Shing Mu YAU, Associate Director (Reintegration) of #ProjectChange. As passionate champions for child welfare in Hong Kong, we were honored to have Sky represent Mother’s Choice and lead this important discussion. The message was clear: we must guide children and ensure they never walk alone. #MothersChoiceHK #HongKong #EveryChildInALovingFamily #ChildProtection #HongKong

Ronald Lee has been an integral member of our Board since 2007, serving as Chair for almost 10 years. He has generously donated his time, skills, and resources, which have been critical in fostering strategic connections that have increased our capacity as an organization. His consistent presence at all our flagship events leave an indelible mark on our corporate values. We deeply value the active involvement of Ron's family, from volunteering at our Child Care Home to participating in event planning committees, with his children even lending their expertise to intern research projects. Under Ron's leadership, we navigated a time of innovation and new projects that drove our organization towards stronger sustainability, scalability, and preparations for future growth and success. Thank you Ron. #MothersChoiceHK #EveryChildInALovingFamily

During the interview, Sky and Eugene explore our vision ‘every child in a loving family’, discuss the current situation of institutional care in Hong Kong, and talk about the challenges we face in achieving our goal. Sky highlights the importance of family as the solution to overcome these hurdles and reminds how as a community, we are committed to changing the life stories of vulnerable children.

Congratulations to Monica Niculescu and Elena-Gabriela Ruse on winning the Hong Kong doubles final at Prudential Hong Kong Tennis 125! Our young girls had a fantastic time cheering you on last week—it was their first experience at such an event! We’re also grateful for Monica’s visit to our Child Care Home last Wednesday, where she played games and shared tennis tips with our excited children and met with our CEO Sky Siu! At Mother’s Choice, we believe that family is the most powerful agent of change. A heartfelt thank you to the tennis “family” — Monica and Hong Kong, China Tennis Association — for helping us bring our vision to life. #MotherChoiceHK #MothersChoiceHongKong #AdoptionHK #FosterHK #ChangingLifeStories #Community #HongKong #EveryChildInALovingFamily #HKTA

A Heartfelt Thank You to Tim Wannenmacher. As Tim Wannenmacher concludes his tenure on the Board of Mother's Choice, we extend our sincere appreciation for his dedicated service since 2018. For more than a decade, Tim has spearheaded the Thanksgiving turkey tradition at Mother’s Choice, fostering a culture of gratitude within our team. His dedication extended beyond this initiative; he played a pivotal role in our major fundraising events, driving significant accomplishments along the way. Tim’s commitment to service was matched by his entire family, who actively participated in various activities—from swimming around Middle Island to engaging in all our events. They were among the first families to join our Project Bridge foster program, demonstrating their strong commitment to our mission. While we will miss his leadership and contributions, his legacy will undoubtedly continue to inspire us. Thank you Tim. #MothersChoiceHK #EveryChildInALovingFamily

After a decade of transformational leadership, we bid farewell to our COO, Helene Rao. Under Helene's visionary leadership, Mother's Choice has expanded immensely in impact and scale. She built high-performing teams, drove innovative programs, and advanced our mission of ensuring every child grows up in a loving family. Helene's passion for our mission was contagious. She motivated all of us with her drive to support Hong Kong's most vulnerable children and young girls. Through her efforts, many more will now experience the care of a safe, loving and permanent family. While we will miss Helene's daily contributions, she leaves a tremendous legacy. Her influence will continue guiding Mother's Choice for years to come. We are forever grateful for her transformative work and dedicated service. On behalf of the entire Mother's Choice community, thank you, Helene, for your visionary leadership and commitment to our children. We wish you all the best in your new chapter. #MothersChoiceHK #EveryChildInALovingFamily

Last week, we came together to celebrate the Mother’s Choice Family Benefit. It was a heartfelt gathering of families across generations, united in our vision to support children finding their forever families. Our talented young performers truly stole the show! The Ballroom Bees dazzled us with their dance, Creative Collab brought Mowgli to life with their vibrant storytelling, Retykle amazed everyone with a stylish fashion show, and Baumhaus wrapped up the event with a joyful sing-along. This wonderful event highlighted the incredible power of all ages working together to make a lasting impact. Thank you to all the children who joined us, showcasing the strength of community and the spirit of helping others. Together, we are building a brighter future filled with hope and love. #motherschoicehk #everychildinalovingfamily #family #children #hongkong
