Dear fellow old boys,

On behalf of the La Salle College Old Boys' Association, I would like to solicit your generous contribution in the coming LSC 75th Anniversary Walkathon, jointly organized by La Salle College, La Salle College Parent Teachers' Association (LSCPTA), La Salle College Old Boys' Association (LSCOBA), La Salle College Student Association (LSCSA) and La Salle Primary School Parent Teachers' Association (LSPSPTA).

The main objective of this Walkathon is to raise funds for the LSC Jubilee Fund. The Jubilee Fund is established as a gift in this jubilee anniversary year to support the enhancement of quality teaching and learning in La Salle College. In order to provide one of the highest standards of education in Hong Kong, our school has to be self-reliant and the funds received will be spent on projects such as hiring additional teachers, purchasing of education equipment as well as putting more resources on academics, pastoral, cultural and sports development. All of these are way above the basic provision from the government and are considered as non-subvented items.

The La Salle Spirit of our old boys has always been so evident and may I ask you to 'reciprocate' to the School in joining this meaningful and healthy event. Not only can you contribute in the fund-raising event of the school, you can have a harmonious walk with your family or friends and enjoy a day of relaxation.

Please complete the reply form and return it together with your cheque payable to "La Salle College". This fund-raising Walkathon is an approved charitable event and donations of HK$100 and above can be deducted for tax purposes.

Dr. Bernard Kong
President
LSCOBA
