The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong (HSUHK)’s “HSUHK FunD Virtual Run” came to a successful end on 2 January 2022. Although the event was transformed into a virtual running event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, HSUHK continued to receive endless support from donors, supporting organisations and participants, raising a good sum for HSUHK’s developments. The event recorded over 670 runner registrations from members of the public, corporate organisation representatives, HSUHK alumni, staff members and students, members of non-profit organisations, and secondary school students. The participation of all walks of life proved that HSUHK is widely recognised and supported by socety.

In this exciting running event, the “Council Chairman Cup” and “President Cup” were set up under the auspices of Council Chairman Dr Moses Cheng and President Simon Ho respectively. The “Council Chairman Cup – Most Supportive School, Most Supportive Residential College and Top Alumni Referral Awards” were received by the School of Business, the S H Ho Wellness College, and Dr Eden Chow respectively. In addition, the “President Cup” was presented to the HSUHK male and female runners who had recorded the longest cumulative running distance. After the two-week running period, the “President Cup” male winner went to Mr Lau Tai Yin, a Year 4 BBA student and the University’s Cross-country Running Team Captain; and the female winner was Ms Esther Lee, Director of Student Affairs. To express his great encouragement, on 20 January 2022, President Ho presented the “President Cup” to the two winners, who also received a cash prize of HK$3,000 each.

“The HSUHK FunD Virtual Run” would like to express heartfelt gratitude to many supporters for making the event a success.
