Last updated: 4 March 2026

Description

Operation Santa Claus supports charitable projects that are meaningful and bring about positive change across three pillars – physically, socially or environmentally. Whether giving food to vulnerable seniors at Christmas or ensuring youths have a chance at learning that most take for granted, sponsors and donors know the causes are worthy. A smile, a nod, a sparkle in the eye are priceless when it comes to making a tangible change to a fellow Hongkonger.
