最高服務時數獎

香港電訊母公司電訊盈科於2011年12月獲社會福利署轄下推廣義工服務督導委員會頒發「2010年最高服務時數獎(私人團體 - 組別一) 」的優異獎，以表揚我們積極透過義工服務幫助社群，貢獻社會。

電訊盈科及香港電訊的義工隊成員超過2,000名，致力透過義工服務照顧不同社群的需要。公司參與義工服務的員工不斷增加，而我們的義工服務範圍主要包括青年服務、長者服務、弱勢社群服務及環保服務。

除了義務工作外，我們亦透過社區項目和贊助回饋社會，特別是在電訊相關範疇向社區提供支援。去年我們向不同的社福機構及本地學校捐助了150台重設的電腦，並連續10年贊助青少年IT夏令營活動，幫助縮窄數碼鴻溝，促進社會和諧。

聖誕節義工服務

義工隊於去年的聖誕節向患有自閉症的小朋友及其家長以及住院病人傳遞關懷和愛心。

於去年12月10日，我們與兒童教育及福利機構協康會合作，與50多位患有自閉症的小朋友及其家長提早慶祝聖誕節。當天逾50名義工及其親友和他們一起進行集體遊戲、美術創作及燒烤等活動，歡度了有意義的一天。

此外，義工隊於同月17日到廣華醫院進行聖誕探訪活動。除了為醫院佈置外，他們更打扮成聖誕老人，並聯同歌詠組，向650位病友派發聖誕禮物。

Highest Service Hour Award

PCCW, the parent company of HKT, was awarded a merit prize in the “Highest Service Hour Award in 2010 (Private Organizations - Category 1)” by the Steering Committee on Promotion of Volunteer Service of the Social Welfare Department in December 2011 in recognition of our continuing contribution to the community through volunteer services.

PCCW and HKT have a large volunteer team of more than 2,000 members who are committed to helping the needy in the community through participating in volunteer activities. More and more colleagues are joining the team to support a wide range of volunteer services including elderly care, youth development, support to the underprivileged and environmental protection.

In addition to volunteer services, we help the community through community projects and sponsorship especially in areas related to our operations. For example, we donated 150 reformatted computers to NGOs and local schools last year and have acted as the sole sponsor of an IT summer camp for 10 years in a row, narrowing the “digital divide” in society.

Volunteer services at Christmas

The volunteer team brought love and care to children with autism and hospital patients at Christmas last year.

The team collaborated with Heep Hong Society, a charitable organization supporting children education and welfare, in celebrating Christmas with more than 50 children with autism and their parents on December 10, 2011. Through group activities, art classes and BBQ, more than 50 volunteers and their friends and family members spent a joyful day with the participants.

Furthermore, our volunteers visited 650 patients at Kwong Wah Hospital on December 17. After decorating the hospital for Christmas, our volunteers wore Santa Claus costumes and joined the choir to distribute gifts to the patients.
