The theme this year was \u201cSinging in the Blue\u201d. The gala aimed at raising funds for providing treatment and assistance for underprivileged children with autism and their families. We were honoured to have over 200 guests joining with us for this meaningful evening.<\/p><p>The programme was wonderful and packed. Music and singing filled the whole venue. A dancing performance by the children of \u201cLearning Buddies\u201d marked the opening of the dinner, followed by a magic show performed by the students from Aoi Pui School. We also showed some treatment videos of our beneficiaries and invited a parent to share her feelings about receiving our services on the stage, letting the guests to better understand how we teach children by ABA treatment. Besides, we organised \u201cSinging Challenge\u201d for the guests to nominate each other to perform by making donations. They were actively involved in this challenge and participated in the live auction as well.<\/p><p>We would like to thank all parties who had donated different items for our charity auction. The gala dinner would not be successful without the generous support from all the guests and the volunteers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ebd3015 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"ebd3015\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.apf.org.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Gala_website_photo_2-1024x256.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-9980\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.apf.org.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Gala_website_photo_2-1024x256.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.apf.org.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Gala_website_photo_2-300x75.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.apf.org.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Gala_website_photo_2-768x192.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.apf.org.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Gala_website_photo_2-1536x384.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.apf.org.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Gala_website_photo_2-2048x512.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f99f2e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7f99f2e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4dc40d elementor-post-navigation-borders-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-navigation\" data-id=\"a4dc40d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-navigation.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__prev elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apf.org.hk\/en\/news\/autism-awareness-actions-2019-charity-sale\" rel=\"prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-prev\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Prev<\/span><\/span><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--label\">Previous<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--title\">Autism Awareness Actions 2019 &#8211; Charity Sale<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__next elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apf.org.hk\/en\/news\/italian-pizza-baking-party\" rel=\"next\"><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__next\"><span class=\"post-navigation__next--label\">Next<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__next--title\">Italian Pizza Baking Party<\/span><\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-next\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Next<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We held our Charity Gala Dinner at Harbour Grand Hong Kong on 17 May.
