Introduction / Aims

The Hong Kong Girl Guides Association Territory-Wide Flag Day aims to raise funds to support the continued development of the Guiding movement and the HKGGA New Headquarters and Youth Hostel Development Project to benefit more girls.

 

We are currently recruiting volunteers for the Flag Day. Individuals can sign up through their schools or Girl Guide units. This year, an "Online Gold Flag Volunteer/ Gold Flag Donation" Campaign will be held for the first time to encourage wider support from the community. Everyone is welcome to register to be an Online Gold Flag Volunteer via the event website. Let us gather the power of our community to make a meaningful contribution towards nurturing more girls into future leaders.
