District-based Programmes by NGOs and community organisations

A total funding of $1.5 million is provided to each district (annual funding of $500,000 for three years in each district) for supporting non-governmental organisations ("NGOs") and community organisations to implement three batches of district-based programmes. In 2017-2020, the Trust has approved 128 district-based programmes organised by nearly 80 NGOs and community organisations with a total funding of about $26.2 million, directly benefiting nearly 110,000 older people and the general public.

Territory-wide Programmes

In response to the three domains with lower scores (namely Community support and health services, Housing, Civic participation and employment), the Trust has scaled up some successful district-based programmes to territory-wide programmes for implementing across the city in order to benefit more people and achieve greater impact.
