The Caring Company Scheme (“the Scheme”) is open for applications from now until 6PM on 8 October 2025.

The new online application system (“the System”) is now fully operational. Companies and organisations applying for the Caring Company or Caring Organisation Logos (“Applicants”) can submit their applications through the system. Nominators can also easily nominate their partners to participate in the Scheme through the system.

The application form consists of 2 parts:

1) Form A: Community Partnership

To be jointly completed by the applicant and their nominator. The applicant needs to mutually confirm at least 2 out of the 5 criteria with the nominator. These criteria include Volunteering, Giving, Mentoring, Employing the vulnerable, and Procurement of products or services.

2) Form B: Sustainability

This section is to be filled out by the applicant. They need to answer questions related to the practice of sustainable development work by the company/organisation, covering 4 areas: social, economic, environmental sustainability, and partnership. The scheme localises international sustainable development standards, setting a basic threshold for “Caring for Society” standard.

Please note that once the above two forms are confirmed and submitted, no modifications can be made. Please ensure that all information provided is accurate.

Online Payment of Application Fee
The system now supports online payment. The one-time application fee for the Scheme is HKD 600, to be paid by the applicant via the system using a credit card. Other payment methods are not accepted (except for government departments). Nominators do not need to pay any fees for the application.

Capacity Building Workshops & Q&A Sessions (Exclusive for Form B)

In addition to the three capacity-building workshops held in June, we will organise more workshops from late July to August to assist companies/organisations to better understand the application form content and filling guidelines. Additionally, there will be online Q&A sessions  to address questions exclusively for the content of Form B. The latest updates on the workshops will be announced through the Scheme’s website and email, please stay tuned.
