Cathay Pacific's community engagement strategy focuses on youth development, diversity and inclusion, environmental protection and global cultural exchange, delivered through flagship initiatives such as Cathay ChangeMakers, World As One, the 'I Can Fly' aviation programme for students, and 'Cathay GET, SET, MOVE' with Rugby For Good. The airline builds long-term NGO partnerships rather than open grants — most notably a 10-year surplus food rescue partnership with Feeding Hong Kong (2,250 tonnes of food redistributed to 260,000 people) and year-round volunteer programmes with HandsOn Hong Kong. For its 80th anniversary the airline committed to uplifting 80,000 lives in 2026 through expanded community programmes. Charities are selected by Cathay's community team; there is no public grant application.
Henderson Land — Community Investment
Corporate Giving Programs
Henderson Land Development's community investment is partnership-driven, delivered through long-standing collaborations with NGOs and government rather than open grants. The developer provides rent-free community spaces for the government's Community Living Room programme (operated with Lok Kwan Social Service and St. James' Settlement, whose CharityToday digital platform distributes Henderson's learning allowances), sponsors transitional housing communities such as Pok Oi Hospital's Kong Ha Wai Village, and mobilises the Henderson Warmth Volunteer Team for festive outreach. Its 50th-anniversary initiatives in 2026 reached over 120,000 people, including HK$1,500 learning allowances for 2,300+ grassroots students. NGO engagement happens through co-created projects; there is no published grant application process.
