Rosita King Ho Scholarship
何金梅英獎學金
On the Donor
The "Rosita King Ho Scholarship Fund" was established in 2004 by a generous donation from the Rosita King Ho International Charitable Foundation (何金梅英國際慈善基金). The Charitable Foundation was set up in 1999 by the late Mr Ho Kwan King (何關根) in memory of his late wife Mrs Rosita King Ho (1929-1999) to support higher education worldwide.
The Rosita King Ho International Charitable Foundation regarded the gift as an investment in the students. By providing students with global vision and social responsibility, the Foundation believes that they have greater potential to become committed and outstanding leaders of the community.
