PolyU hosted the “Tin Ka Ping Foundation Donation Ceremony” on 26 August 2024 to express our heartfelt gratitude for the Foundation’s unwavering support since 2003. Deeply concerned about the mental well-being of young people, the Foundation has been supporting the PolyU’s P.A.T.H.S. project since 2011.
The current donation for research aims to support three projects led by Prof. Daniel SHEK, Associate Vice President (Undergraduate Programme) and Chair Professor of APSS, and other APSS colleagues (Dr Ann LI, Dr Julie ZHU, Dr Diya DOU, Prof. Janet LEUNG and Dr Lu YU) to address mental health issues among teenagers in Hong Kong and Mainland China and promote their holistic development. It benefits primary and secondary schools and supports "service leadership" and “service learning” activities for PolyU and Mainland university students.
The ceremony was officiated by Mr Hing-sin TIN, Chairman of the Tin Ka Ping Foundation, Mr Hay-lap TAI, Vice Chairman, Mr Wing-sin TIN, Director; Professor Jin-Guang TENG, President of PolyU, and Dr Roy CHUNG, Treasurer of the PolyU Foundation and Honorary Chairman of the University Court. In honour of the tremendous contributions to education by late Dr TIN and the Foundation's support, PolyU has named classroom GH405 the "Tin Ka Ping Children and Youth Development Classroom"
