Meet Patrick LAM Hak-chung , the Face of Courage!

Patrick from ELCHK Lutheran Academy will take up a huge challenge on 2023 Nov 25 -
to abseil from 1000ft at the iconic One Island East.

HK Vertical 1000 is not just a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to step out of their comfort zone, but also the chance to fundraise for a local charity - Outward Bound Hong Kong and its work to #FutureProofYOUth.

Listen to his story:

ELCHK Lutheran Academy (the only Direct Subsidy Scheme through-train IB primary and secondary school in Hong Kong) is committed to develop future leaders in Christian faith.

Resilience, growth mindset and risk-taking (one of the 10 IB learner profile attributes) are best manifested in this challenge of 1000 feet abseiling.

Our Academy treasures and supports inclusive communities, including the ethnic minorities, mentally challenged and physically impaired individuals who are the beneficiaries of this event.

The supportive hearts and donation amongst our over 1000 school members truly demonstrate the unity and bonding for better future.

Research shows every $1 returned $13 social benefits

Every year, over 2500 participants received subsidies to participate in Outward Bound courses. Participants report a significant increase in resilience, compassion, self-confidence, and environmental responsibility.

Your donation allows Outward Bound Hong Kong to provide life-changing experiences to Hong Kong youth and enables disadvantaged young people to re-imagine themselves and their future, contributing to a stronger Hong Kong.
