FEED THE HOMELESS
Feed the Homeless
Our target is to distribute at least 50,000 bento meal boxes in 2022
Everyday Project Dignity distributes bento meal boxes to the homeless and needy in Mongkok. Each day it costs $6,500 to provide a decent meal to 130 needy recipients without question. A simple corporate donation to help pay for a day, a week or even a month’s bento box meals will go a long way to ensuring that the less fortunate in our community at least have a good meal in this difficult pandemic. Other needy and single seniors served by Yaumatei Church, Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate and Grassroot Future also receive our support regularly as well.
Discover how you can help Hong Kong’s needy, elderly and disadvantaged in the initiatives below.
Lunch Treat For the Elderly (LTFE)
1 in 5 people in Hong Kong are above 65 years old.
Many of them live alone or in care facilities and lead a socially inactive life that is detrimental to their mental and physical well-being.
Our LTFE outreach program organized with the support of NGOs and social welfare organisations provides the communal enjoyment of a meal together and social activities like karaoke, arts & crafts and even exercise programs for healthy living.
Each event costs $6,000 for 20 elderlies (and their caregivers if any)
Skills Training & Job Placement for Differently Abled Persons
Dignity Kitchen Hong Kong conducts formal training in food preparation and cooking for Differently Abled Persons with special needs. Each course takes up to 8 weeks covering culinary skills, safety & hygiene practices and customer engagement.
More than 100 have graduated in the last 3 years. Besides working at Dignity Kitchen, we have placed our graduates in jobs at Hyatt Shatin, Sheraton at Four Points and cafes in Hong Kong.
Each trainee is supported by corporate scholarships which amount to $20,000 each.
Community Outreach & Engagement
Financial contributions and donations are balanced by committed and caring people who organize and participate in our programs. We encourage companies to support CSR programs by involving their staff as well. Besides sponsorship of activities, Project Dignity Hong Kong has communal areas on site to hold from 10 to 40 participants. We have organized healthy lifestyle cooking classes for the underprivileged, corporate team building events, community interaction etc.
Our team is always ready to help you plan your next CSR program for your company and staff.

Who are we?
A social enterprise that began more than 10 years ago in Singapore and expanded to Hong Kong in 2019. Our mission is to return DIGNITY to the disabled and disadvantaged in our society. This includes both physical and intellectual challenged from different social backgrounds and age groups
Through the generous support of the Hong Kong Government and URA, Project Dignity was provided a prime location in Mongkok to open Dignity Kitchen, a food centre serving popular Singapore Hawker food.
This is operated entirely by our disabled and disadvantaged beneficiaries.
We have been listed in Asia’s Top 50 Best Restaurants 2021, a testimony to the high standard of culinary skills of our Differently Abled Chefs!
