TWGHs has been serving Hong Kong people for 150 years. This year, TWGHs is going to spread its benevolence to every corner of Hong Kong through its spirit of "For Charity, We Go Beyond". Painted on the upper skateboard is a fantasy world where a group of goldfish wearing birthday hat swimming across a sea of clouds to celebrate the TWGHs 150th anniversary. In the city below, the symbolic tenement buildings of Hong Kong are transformed into a zebra crossing for people of all generations to stride across. Like the goldfish, everyone is marching in the same direction, putting the aspiration "For Charity, We Go Beyond" into practice. Last but not least, the sailing ship in the bottom part, which signifies the TWGHs, also sails across the rough sea dauntlessly, implying its determination in carrying on its philanthropic spirit to a further reach.


Vivian Ho is a young Hong Kong artist whose practice consists of oil paintings, charcoal and digital illustrations. Her distinctive artistic style, which adopts vibrant colours, evinces her acute senses and humorous personality.

東華三院陪伴香港人150年,本著「行善.行更遠」的精神,通過服務把關愛帶到香港每一個角落。滑板上是一個天馬行空的幻想世界,有戴著生日帽的金魚在雲海中穿梭,愉快地慶祝東華三院的150周年誌慶。在城市中,香港的舊式大廈樓頂化身成斑馬線,來自不同界別的男女老幼與上方的金魚一樣,同心地朝著同一方向前進,齊齊以行動實踐「行善.行更遠」﹗至於大海中的東華三院傳統帆船,同樣無懼風浪,為「善」揚帆行更遠!
