Set up a Charity Service

In today’s society, philanthropy can not only help those in need, but also enhance the social responsibility and brand image of enterprises. Setting up a charity is an effective way to make a contribution to society. Our professional team will assist you in setting up a charity to realize your philanthropic vision, and through in-depth analysis, customize the charity structure, such as a limited company name license, branch office and customized articles of association to apply for funding.

Reasons for setting up a charity:

  • Social Impact
    Setting up charities can directly improve social issues, help disadvantaged groups, and enhance social well-being.
  • Tax incentives
    The Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department (IRD) provides tax incentives to charities, and donations are tax-deductible.
  • Brand image enhancement
    Through charity activities, enterprises can enhance their brand image, attract more customers and partners, and enhance their market competitiveness.
  • Employee engagement
    Setting up a charity can stimulate a sense of participation and responsibility among employees, enhance team cohesion, and create a better working atmosphere.
  • Government and private sector funding
    Once you have set up a charity, you can apply for funding from the government and the private sector to get more resources to support your charity projects.
  • Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
    With the growing importance of corporate social responsibility, setting up a charity can help improve your ESG performance, attract more investors and partners, and achieve sustainable development.

The main types of charities in Hong Kong:

  • 1. Company limited by guarantee
  • 2. Societies
  • 3. Trust or trust company
