The “Caring Company” award has once again been awarded to Asian Tigers Hong Kong as an attestation of the company’s endless commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR). This well-esteemed award has been continuously given to them for the years, which is a testament to their laudable support of the community and their people while not forgetting to preserve the environment. The Hong Chi Association has nominated Asian Tigers Hong Kong, who is very proud to be a sponsor of their yearly activities, including the very popular Hong Chi Climbathon 2019.

More than simply being just an award, “Caring Company” means a company is committed to making a difference in society. The fact that Asian Tigers Hong Kong has won this award consecutively only goes to show the deep-rooted values and continuous effort the company is making to really make a difference. Being nominated by the Hong Chi Association, itself an organization dedicated to serving people with intellectual disabilities, underlines further which values are aligned between these two organizations. This is a partnership driven by common vision: to build a society that is inclusive and supportive.

One of the main events Asian Tigers Hong Kong sponsored was the Flag Day organized by the Hong Chi Association. This event enables the association to raise funds for its many diversified programs and services. The involvement of Asian Tigers Hong Kong in this event provides needed financial support and creates awareness about the fine work that Hong Chi Association does. This sponsorship by the company also helps to run Flag Day successfully and furthers its good work within the community.

2019 also sees Asian Tigers Hong Kong sponsoring the Hong Chi Climbathon, one of the events that promotes a healthy lifestyle by engaging citizens for a good cause while supporting the association with funds. The Climbathon signifies much more than an examination of bodily power; it has become an embodiment of resilience and determination in the struggle, which resonates deeply with all missions undertaken by Hong Chi Association and Asian Tigers Hong Kong. Participation in this event would thus amount to contributing to a good cause but also to the requirements of promoting brotherhood and hard work within society.

The Asian Tigers Hong Kong step to CSR goes beyond the boundaries of event sponsorship. Within its rank and file, the company aggressively promotes a culture of care, zeroing in on the welfare of its people through a conducive, supportive work atmosphere and professional development, among other work-life balance programs. With this caring and nurturing workplace, Asian Tigers Hong Kong has locked in the value and motivation of its workforce toward its corporate social responsibility goals.

Another key pillar of the Asian Tigers Hong Kong CSR strategy is environmental stewardship. The group aims at incorporating sustainable business practices that will help reduce their ecological footprint on the environment. This includes reduction of wastes, increase in recycling, and use of environmentally friendly materials. By incorporating sustainability in the business model, Asian Tigers Hong Kong is able to prove that it really cares about the environment and its preservation for future generations.

The pride of place for Asian Tigers Hong Kong is the continued recognition as a “Caring Company.” This award reflects the company’s unwavering commitment to making a positive difference in the community, supporting their employees, and ensuring a safe environment. In this respect, this award has served as a reminder to the company about its responsibility for upholding such values and continuing its CSR efforts.

In other words, being adjudged as a “Caring Company” is no mean feat and lays a framework for Asian Tigers Hong Kong as a company with a holistic approach toward corporate social responsibility. They not only support Hong Chi Association in its organized events but also look after the welfare of their employees and the environment—hallmarks of a socially responsible company. These are efforts that do not stop at the community but further a culture of care and responsibility. Once again, kudos to Asian Tigers Hong Kong for this great achievement and for continuing to make a difference in the world around them.
