The Portia Cheung Breast Cancer Support Programme
張 謝 寶 英 乳 癌 康 復 資 助 計 劃
The Portia Cheung Breast Cancer Support Programme (the Programme) was established in March 2007 in memory of Mr Eric Cheung's beloved wife who died of breast cancer. As Government will not provide free PET-CT Scan service to needy patients for staging of cancer, the Programme has recently expanded its scope to also sponsor needy breast cancer patients in public hospitals to have timely PET-scan service in private clinic so that they can receive the most appropriate treatment. By December 2023, the Programme has donated more than HK$6.5 million to subsidise over 1,030 needy breast cancer patients for undergoing PET-CT Scan and purchasing extra nourishment, breast prosthesis and drugs which currently are not funded by the Government or other sources.
「香港防癌會張謝寶英乳癌康復資助計劃」於 2007 年 3 月成立,以紀念寶英於同年因乳癌病逝。目前,政府並沒有提供任何資助予有需要的乳癌患者進行正電子掃描。有見及此,本計劃最近開始資助公立醫院的乳癌患者在私營診所進行正電子掃描一次,以讓她們得到適切的幫助及治療。 截至 2023 年 12 月,計劃已撥出超過港幣 650 萬善款資助逾 1,030 位有需要的乳癌病人,資助她們購買目前未獲政府或其他資源資助的需要,如額外營養品、義乳、進行正電子掃描(PET-CT Scan)及藥物援助。
The donation to the Programme will be earmarked for direct subsidy to needy breast cancer patients, and every dollar received will be given direct to the patients without any administrative or other costs.
「資助計劃」收到的所有捐款會一分一毫皆直接給予有需要病人,無任何行政費用。
