Established in 1968, The Hong Kong Society for the Deaf (the Society) is a government-subvented, non-profit organization providing the largest and most comprehensive hearing impaired services in Hong Kong. We are committed to promoting the welfare, rights, and ensure equal development opportunities for hearing impaired. The 22 service units of the Society serve over 100,000 person times annually, covering the hearing impaired and their carers, students with special educational needs, the elderly and the public, with a membership of more than 7,000.

The Hong Kong Society for the Deaf will hold a flag-selling event on July 5, 2025 (Saturday) on Hong Kong Island. The theme is "Overcoming Hearing Impairment, Walking Together." We have invited local illustrator SAIMOMO to design a set of six flag stickers, aiming to raise public awareness of the needs of the hearing impaired and the importance of hearing protection. Funds raised will be used to support:

All donations raised from the flag day will greatly support our services. We sincerely appeal to kind-hearted individuals for generous donations and enthusiastic support.

Life Stories of Beneficiaries

Kaka, a child with profound hearing loss and her mother

"You are not alone, because we (The Hong Kong Society for the Deaf) are walking along with you."
Who Can Hear

Education Service

Kaka was unable to utter a single word even though she was over three years old. Her mother was deeply distressed and unable to find the cause. One day, they visited Sheung Tak Child Care Centre, where the teachers suspected that Kaka might have hearing issues preventing her from speaking. It was eventually confirmed that she had profound hearing loss in both ears.
After enrolling at the Sheung Tak Child Care Centre, thanks to the dedicated efforts of teachers and speech therapists, despite challenges such as COVID, Kaka successfully spoke her first word at five years old and gradually became capable of conversational speech. She has now successfully transitioned to mainstream primary school.

Osman, Born into a Hearing-Impaired Family

"Not everything is given in the stage of growing up, including having a happy family. But I feel that growing up in such a family is actually a good thing, not an obstacle but a kind of mission."
Osman from a Deaf Family

CODA (Children of Deaf Adults) Service

Mother of Osman is hearing impaired, while his father is the sole breadwinner and often away for work. From a young age, Osman acted as a bridge between his mother and the world. The Society has followed his case for many years, witnessing his determination to overcome the challenges faced by a CODA. He developed independence and perseverance, achieving 26 points in the HKDSE and gaining admission to The Chinese University of Hong Kong. Osman considers caring for his mother to be his mission and motivation, and he hopes Hong Kong society will provide more resources to support CODA in their growth.

Ka Yee, Hearing-Impaired Youth Shining in the Workplace

"The world is so big, there will definitely be a place where you can shine. I believe there will always be somewhere you can find your own value."
Ka Yee with Hearing Aid

Employment & Training Services

Ka Yee has had hearing impairment since childhood and has relied on hearing aids. After graduation, she held several jobs, but colleagues mistakenly assumed her hearing aids allowed her to communicate just as fluently as people with normal hearing. They would often assign her to answer phone calls, unaware of her difficulties in understanding conversations, which cause her to lose confidence and fear making mistakes.
Later, the Society introduced her to a logistics company as a customer service representative handling online inquiries. Her supervisor provided her with opportunities to challenge herself, and her colleagues warmly accepted her, even learning sign language together. This experience helped her rebuild her self-esteem.

Through a mutual support group for Cochlear Implant users organized by HKSD, she met others with cochlear implant, encouraging each other to overcome challenges.
