In Hong Kong, people love spending time on Stanley during weekends not only because of some famous restaurants and bars, but also the Murray House, a building with Victorian-era style. Chilling in Stanley become one of the popular activities. However, other than Murray House, Chung Hom Kok is another secret area in Stanley with spectacular views over the sea.

 

In our coming community run, FOODSPORT will bring participants to start at Stanley Market and go Chung Hom Kok via Murray House. After a chill run, participants can enjoy the view with some sea breeze along the promenade.

 

Same as before, all burnt calories will be collected and be donated to our beneficiary, Food Grace. Let's exercise for hunger together. Registration will be available online from 13 May (Saturday, 1200 noon) to 19 May (Friday, 1200 noon).

《ABOUT BENEFICIARY - FOOD GRACE》

Established in 2009, when Hong Kong was experiencing the financial tsunami, the economic downturn and the rising unemployment rate made the life of a group of deprived people even worse. At the same time, we found that a lot of food was discarded from the supply chain. Food Grace adopted a simple and direct method: when collecting vegetables in the Tai Po market, we used trolleys to greet each food stall, and tried to encourage them to donate leftover food and donate it to unemployed workers in Tai Po District.

 

Today, Food Grace have not only established a systematic supply chain for recycling and distributing food, and continue to benefit the grassroots through leftover food, but also take the promotion of food cherishing for all people as our responsibility, and use the strategy of "recycling, education, and advocacy" to help solve local kitchen problems. I question.
