Edward Man Ho-wai believes his team’s work can help save many families from crumbling under the pressures of daily life.

“When families go through difficulties, they feel helpless and often don’t know where to find help,” he said.

The founder of ChickenSoup Foundation said the charity provides free and comprehensive services for these households, such as child care and empowerment support.

Under the foundation’s family programme, those in need may also obtain subsidies for medical treatment and receive career training.

“We act as a hub to collect donations and distribute resources to the needy,” Man said.
