Abstract:
Loletta Chu was the winner of the 1977 Miss Hong Kong Pageant.
Being the founder and Honorary Life President of Wai Yin Association, Chu devotes her time in philanthropy. She believes in serving the community and addressing on going social issues, people jointly act together to alleviate social concerns. The purpose of Wai Yin’s existence is to give and do charitable works. They seek to serve the community by helping others less fortunate than ourselves to attain a better life; this in turn gives one’s life ‘value’. Moreover, charitable actions benefit one’s life by cultivating compassion – a spiritual value. The work of Wai Yin is a ‘labour of compassion’.
Whilst Wai Yin focuses on philanthropy and individual social responsibility, it provides a worthy platform for corporate sponsors to engage in works of charity and to exercise corporate social responsibility. The funds raised from annual projects benefit organizations whose mission is to make a difference in the lives of people in need.
