CareER Scholarship Program 2025
Introduction
CareER is the first charity for higher-educated students/graduates with disabilities and/or special educational needs (SEN) in Hong Kong. CareER is honoured to continue launching the CareER Scholarship Program 2025. The scholarship aims to recognise students with disabilities and/or SEN in the pursuit of excellence in serving the community and achievement in extracurricular activities and their willingness to challenge themselves to experience new exposures. Hence, their academic achievements are NOT the main focus of the selection criteria.
