March 2013 – ChickenSoup @ Kowloon City

Mr. & Mrs. David Lee have been friends and investors with The Associates.  Mr. David Lee is a Senior Partner of the Boston Consulting Group (“BCG”).  After the realization of the investment in November, Mrs. Lee has decided to allocate a portion of the investment gain to a responsible investment with The Associates.

The Associates moved on to scout for “investment” opportunities in Kowloon City, one of the oldest districts in Hong Kong.  Kowloon City is undergoing a major transformation as the former airport site is being redeveloped into a large scaled commercial and residential area.  However the older residential neighborhood is being left behind at the moment.

Introduced by Principal Tai, a former teacher of The Associates’ founder, Kowloon City Children & Youth Integrated Service Center was chosen as the 4th ChickenSoup partner.  This center is funded and operated by Hong Kong Anglican Church (Sheng Kung Hui).

Mr. & Mrs. David Lee committed to a two-year financial donation to support 15 kids with comprehensive after-school care services starting March 2014.  In the second year, the number of beneficiaries will increase to 80 students.  Mr. Lee also tagged along BCG as a “weekend activities” sponsor in employee time and out-of-pocket expenses.  This is a milestone for the ChickenSoup with a corporate sponsorship.
