DONATE YOUR BIRTHDAY
CELEBRATE YOUR LIFE BY HONOURING THEIRS.
Are you looking for a special way to celebrate your birthday this year? Instead of receiving physical gifts, leverage your special day for good by asking your friends and family to donate to Branches of Hope on your behalf to care for the refugee community in Hong Kong.
