Funding Scheme on Promotion of Family Education 2024-25 opens for application from today
****************************************************************************************
     The Home and Youth Affairs Bureau and the Family Council have launched a new five-year Funding Scheme on the Promotion of Family Education today (October 14) and invite a 2024-25 round of applications. The deadline for applications is November 22.
      
     The Scheme seeks to subsidise non-profit-making community family education projects to raise public awareness of family education and its importance, and further promote family values to enhance family well-being and social harmony.
                                     
     The Scheme covers various family-related themes such as education for new parents, parent-child education, maintenance of family relationships, strengthening of family cohesion and solidarity, inheritance of good family values and traditional virtues, and other marriage-related subjects, etc to meet the needs of different families. Apart from the above-mentioned themes, applicant organisations may apply for funding to organise suitable projects with other family-related themes having regard to the concern or needs of the community. A proposed project may feature more than one theme provided that they are family-related. The funding cap for each 12-month and 18-month project is $800,000 and $1,200,000 respectively.
      
     Details of the Scheme, including the application guide and application form, are available on the website of the Scheme (www.pfe.gov.hk). Interested eligible bodies and non-governmental organisations may submit applications.
