The New Zealand Society of Hong Kong has been active in Hong Kong since 1957. Its main objectives are to encourage the interests of New Zealand and to promote fellowship among New Zealanders who are resident in Hong Kong, and those people interested in New Zealand, by holding a variety of social, business and cultural events suitable for individuals and families. Throughout its six decades of existence it has always been an entirely volunteer-run non-profit society, with all funds raised applied to subsidise events and activities for the NZ community in Hong Kong or donated to charities.
