Cheung Kong Group continues to lead the charge in corporate social responsibility, scooping up 171 “Caring Company Logo” awards from the Hong Kong Council of Social Services (HKCSS). This milestone marks a record 21 consecutive years of unwavering dedication to community care.
Among these accolades, 22 companies proudly sport the “20 Years Plus Caring Company Logo”, 44 the “15 Years Plus”, 42 the “10 Years Plus”, and 40 the “5 Years Plus” logos.
The HKCSS Caring Company Programme isn’t just about recognition – it’s about fostering a caring community. CKHH is proud to continue to champion good corporate citizenship and support for the community, employees and the environment.
CK Group companies were awarded more “Caring Company Logo” designations than any other corporate group in Hong Kong.
