20th Anniversary Charity Gala

Highlighted past events

Founded in 2001 with its mission to improve quality of life of arthritis patients, Hong Kong Arthritis & Rheumatism Foundation Limited (HKARF) has been dedicated to offering comprehensive educational and rehabilitation services and providing financial and psychological support. HKARF held its 20th Anniversary Charity Gala on 20th October at Shouson Theatre. Over 400 rheumatologists, nurses, patient groups and volunteers graced us with their presence to raise funds for the good cause. The Charity Gala raised around one million four hundred thousand dollars to support the Foundation’s future development.

It was an immense pleasure that the Chief Executive of Hospital Authority Dr. Ko, Pat Sing Tony bestowed us by being Guest of honor. A specular show was staged at the Charity Gala. Mr. Anderson Junior and Ms. Lau, Choi Yuk were the hosts. Famous performers Mr. Yip, Chun Tong, Mr. Lee, Lung Kei, Ms. Lau, Choi Yuk, and our special guest Ms. Fong, Yi Kei (listed in no particular order) performed live and evoked a nostalgia for golden songs of the past. Ms. Sit, Ka Yin recorded a short video to wish the Foundation a happy 20th birthday.

Two microfilms “SUPERWOMAN” and “竹.迷.藏” were made by HKRAA and B27 Association, respectively, were played on the screen. The cast of “SUPERWOMAN” includes Ms. Chau, Sau Na Chrissie and Mr. Sammy Leung. The cast of “竹.迷.藏” includes Mr. Chau, Pak Ho, Ms. Cheung, Man Ka Crystal, and Mr. Poon, Wan Fung. Both microfilms are heartwarming. They do exemplary jobs of showing the difficulties in arthritis and rheumatic patients and spreading awareness and education. The program was live streamed on YouTube. It was watched by more than 500 viewers.

In addition to the performances, many donors generously donated to support the good cause. Dr. Lee, Ka Wing the Chairman, Mr. Chan, Kar Lok the Vice Chairman and the Chairman of 20th Anniversary Fund-Raising Committee, and Dr. Ng, Kam Hung the Vice Chairman promised to continue to engage and empower arthritis and rheumatic patients to strive for better health.

《與狼共舞──紅斑狼瘡症的護理與治療》
新書發佈會

紅斑狼瘡症(簡稱SLE)是一種慢性自身免疫系統疾病,醫學界最早提及紅斑狼瘡的病徵,可追溯至公元前西醫之父希波克拉底的論述,提及一種臉部出現嚴重紅疹的疾病。病患者的皮膚、關節、腎臟、心臟血管和神經系統會因為發炎產生病變。
香港風濕病基金會希望透過《與狼共舞 — 紅斑狼瘡症的護理與治療》這本書,能深入淺出地介紹狼瘡症的病因、病狀和最新治療方法。編者特別在書中加入了多位病患者的故事,包括年輕藝人杜小喬、從小發病的鋼琴老師Rainbow和多位積極參與病人自助組織的病友,由她們親身細訴如何走出紅斑狼瘡症的陰霾,從而提高此書的可讀性和趣味性。
