Hans Andersen Club

Address
Contacts

In 1963, a group of expatriates began serving the underprivileged children and new migrant families in the Diamond Hill district of Kowloon.

Hans Andersen Club was named after the renowned Danish story writer Hans Christian Andersen to symbolize the Club’s concerns for and focus on the well being of children and the youth, regardless of their races, nationalities and religions.

Care the needy

Hans Andersen Club cares for the minority in the community. About some 50 years ago, HAC started to serve the people living in the squatter area, refugee camps and later on the outlying islands in Hong Kong. They cherish every opportunity to provide needy children with suitable services.

Innovative Services

In the last few decades, HAC launched various innovative services to meet the need of families and children. For example, the Cyber learning centre located in Tai O Centre helped the inhabitants to use computers as a means to link up with the outside world. In recent years, HAC provides creative storytelling services to enhance harmony among families.

Vision

HAC takes families as its servicing target. As a harmonious parent-child relationship can be established through storytelling and creative games, Hans Andersen Club purports to provide adequate training as well as readily accessible resources and trainings on storytelling and on devising creative games, and to serve the grass-root and under-privileged families and their children in Hong Kong. Their goal is to enable children enjoy holistic development and adapt to intellectual based society.
