Receive Contributions from Donors in Hong kong
With a growing number of high-net-worth individuals and an increasing interest in social impact, Hong Kong is becoming a hub for philanthropy in Asia.
However, navigating the philanthropic landscape in Hong Kong can be complex and requires a deep understanding of local regulations and cultural nuances. Regulatory compliance, cultural differences in fundraising practices, and the need for effective networking and relationship-building all add the complexities that need to be considered before starting to fundraise in Hong Kong.
A fund with the Chapel & York Hong Kong Foundation can provide your charity with a presence in Hong Kong and allow you to effectively fundraise without the need to set up a separate legal entity. The Foundation offers a turnkey solution for international charities seeking to establish a presence in Hong Kong, including legal and administrative support, ability to offer tax benefits to philanthropists and corporate partners, and compliance with local laws and regulations.
By partnering with Chapel & York, your charity can tap into the growing philanthropic landscape in Hong Kong and expand its reach and impact in the region.
Effortlessly fundraise in Hong Kong, while Chapel & York handles all the regulatory, banking, donation management, and technical matters, enabling you to concentrate exclusively on your mission

In evaluating your completed application and conducting our due diligence, Chapel & York will review submitted documentation to ensure your organisation is able to receive grants/payments from the Hong Kong Foundation.
In this process, Chapel & York makes no judgments as to the value of the work you do or the capacity of your organisation to do it. Once we are satisfied your application meets the criteria, the application is passed to the Foundation Executive Director to share with the board your desire to set up a fund.
In the event of your application being rejected, you will be refunded the membership fee.
