The Zubin Foundation 10 Years of Transforming Lives of Hong Kong’s Ethnic Minorities 

As we celebrate our 10th year, The Zubin Foundation is more determined than ever to improve the lives of Hong Kong’s ethnic minorities. Over the past decade, we have transformed lives by reducing suffering and providing opportunities to Hong Kong’s ethnic minorities. Our ten-year anniversary is a powerful reminder that poverty in our community continues to rise and thousands of individuals are in need of support, whether women victims of domestic violence, elderly individuals living alone, or children facing mental health problems. We are grateful to Standard Chartered for providing us with available slots to raise funds for our work. The Zubin Foundation is an integrated service provider for Hong Kong’s ethnic minorities, supporting 12,000 service users in 2023 with a core team of 28 staff. 

Meenali is 48 years old and, for her married life, has been the victim of coercive control by her mother-in-law and husband. She was not allowed to leave home on her own and has been emotionally and physically abused for decades. In 2022, she called our helpline, Call Mira, and began to receive counselling. She began to develop self-care and self-confidence and with support from us, she started to work from home making handicrafts. She now earns a nominal income, and her status in her family has changed. She says that her relationship with her in-laws and husband has changed, and she feels respected. 

When times are tough, it is those on the margins that suffer the most and we ask you to help us help them. Thank you for your support.

ABOUT THE ZUBIN FOUNDATION: RUN FOR A CAUSE 2025

(STANDARD CHARTERED HONG KONG MARATHON 2025 CHARITY PROGRAMME)

The Zubin Foundation is truly privileged to be one of the charitable organisations endorsed by the Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon (SCHKM) 2025 Charity Programme. Through this remarkable opportunity, we have been granted several SCHKM charity quotas.

Everyday Marathon Life of Ethnic Minorities

Within our marginalised ethnic minority communities, many individuals navigate their own challenging 'marathons' in life, facing racial and gender biases, language barriers, mental health struggles and stigmas, health issues, special educational needs, disabilities, and various other obstacles. Just as marathon runners are uplifted by cheering crowds and aid stations, Zubin’s Family Centre stands steadfastly beside our community members every step of the way. We offer essential resources, counselling, and a supportive environment to help our service users cross the finish line and achieve their dreams. Our aim is to promote healthy living, spread positivity, and foster inclusivity throughout our diverse community.

We invite you to be part of The Zubin Foundation: Run For A Cause 2025, pledging your support to delivering impactful and lasting results, creating opportunities and opening a path of dignity out of poverty for the marginalised ethnic minority community in Hong Kong. You are playing an important part in the stories of our underprivileged service users.
