Established in Hong Kong in 1998, the Foundation is devoted to AIDS prevention among high-risk groups, and to caring for AIDS patients and their children.

Long term, ongoing projects include subsidizing HIV testing, donating milk powder to HIV infected mothers, and subsidizing school fees for AIDS orphans. More than 1,000 primary and middle school students are being sponsored, and the Foundation plans shortly to begin sponsoring high school students. It expects to continue subsidising children village by village, depending on the rate of infection, for the next seven to ten years.

The Foundation is working with the Shenzhen Center for Disease Control on HIV testing and surveillance in Shenzhen.

It is also working with Fudan University’s School of Public Health on a course aimed at improving understanding of homosexuality.


Chi Heng has received support from international and Hong Kong agencies ,including Hong Kong’s Home Affairs Bureau and the Hong Kong AIDS Trust Fund.
