Festive cheer was in the air as the voices of carol singers elevated peoples’ spirits in a Wong Chuk Hang office earlier this month.

The troupe, formed by 20 employees of professional services firm KPMG, got dozens of colleagues in the holiday mood by presenting the songs Feliz Navidad, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, O’ Holy Night and Silent Night on December 10.

While revelling in the heart-warming singalong, attendees contributed to the accounting company’s donation towards Operation Santa Claus, the annual charity campaign organised by the South China Morning Post and public broadcaster RTHK.

Pat Woo, partner and head of corporate social responsibility at KPMG China, said the carolling session gave his team a chance to have fun and do charity work together during the festive season.

He said the company was keen to engage with the community.

“We continue to work with people we meet in the Operation Santa Claus project,” he said.
