An additional injection of $200 million to CIIF was approved by LegCo Finance Committee to ensure that CIIF could continue to perform its social function in furthering social capital development

The achievements of CIIF in enhancing individual capacity, fostering mutual trust and forging neighbourhood support network were reaffirmed by the Government when the Financial Secretary proposed an additional injection of $200 million in his Budget Proposal 2012-2013. The proposed injection was finally approved by LegCO Finance Committee on 25 January 2013.

CIIF welcomes the approval and would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to CIIF Committee current and serving members, SC. Net members, project teams, partners and volunteers for your active participation and sterling support in the past ten years. Together we can continue to promote the reciprocity between the public and various sectors, and build together a cross-sectoral collaborative platform and mutual help networks, so as to ensure that social capital in Hong Kong can grow from strength to strength.
