In regard to the special financial need of deprived members, the Club launched a “Breaking through the barriers and to regain a New Voice “program to subvent the selected members to purchase speech devices. The “Village Volunteers” of Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital supported this scheme in 2011 and the project ended on March 2016. On the other hand, our Club has formed “The New Voice Club of Hong Kong Hardship Fund” for our members to apply in case of emergency need. |
