January 22, 2018 – To promote public awareness and social inclusion, Galaxy Entertainment Group (“GEG”) has donated MOP10,000 to support the Bringing Joy and Love to Children at Christmas charity campaign, co-organized by the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau (IACM), Caritas Macau, Orbis Macau and the World Vision of Macau Association. The donation was used to purchase Christmas gifts for needy children and support emergency aid programs for children in other regions. In addition, GEG also sent a representative to attend the gift delivery activity and hosted over one hundred children for a movie screening.

IACM invited the children from the Sheng Kung Hui “Star of Hope” Youth Home, Escola D. Luis Versiglia, Centro Residencial “Arco-Iris”, and the ‘Mong-Ha’ Children and Youth Home to UA Galaxy Cinemas, Macau's largest 3D cinema complex with ten theatres, to watch Pixar’s latest animated blockbuster “Coco”, a film about love and ambition. 

“I’m glad to be visiting Galaxy Macau™ with my students. We’ve spent a relaxing and happy afternoon here. The students are very glad because they seldom have the chance to watch a movie with a big group of friends. Thanks to GEG’s arrangement, we were able to enjoy this meaningful and fun movie in such a comfortable environment,” said Wong Mei Lou, a social worker at the Sheng Kung Hui “Star of Hope” Youth Home.

GEG has supported IACM’s Bringing Joy and Love to Children at Christmas campaign for eight consecutive years. The event aims to deliver warmth and festive blessings to children in need and raise funds from various sectors of the community to extend a helping hand to children in other regions. The film screening is one of many activities in the Bringing Joy and Love to Children at Christmas campaign.
