Riviera Gardens under Urban Group
join hands to raise fund for tsunami victims
Date: 28/1/2005

The Riviera Gardens Management Office under Urban Group in Tsuen Wan has recently launched a fund-raising activity for UNICEF in collaboration with the Riviera Gardens Estate Owners' Committee and Tsuen Wan District Councillor, Mr. Timothy P. T. Chow, to raise funds for the tsunami victims in South Asia. The activity received good response and support from the residents of the estate.

Donation box has been placed at each tower lobby within Riviera Gardens. Within a short period of only one week, the meaningful fund-raising activity has collected a total of HK$25,208.60 to support UNICEF's emergency relief and re-construction works in the affected South Asia countries. All donations received had been hand over to UNICEF on 8th January 2005.

The enthusiastic supports and assistance from residents of Riviera Gardens and staff members of Urban Group at the estate in co-organizing this fund-raising activity revealed that Hong Kong people are full of love, concern and generosity. However, there is still a long way to go in the restoration of livelihood and reconstruction of affected countries. After this ad hoc fund raising activity in the estate, though, the Riviera Gardens Management Office will continue to provide the information on the International Relief Organizations for those residents who wish to make donations to the tsunami victims.
