HKBU has received a generous donation of HK$1 million from the Tan Siu Lin Foundation to bolster the “Tan Siu Lin Foundation Perpetual Fund for Free Chinese Medicine Consultation Day”, which supports the School of Chinese Medicine (SCM) in organising regular free consultation days to provide subsidies for medical expenses to those in need. Since 2016, the Foundation has made multiple donations to SCM, with cumulative donations totalling HK$9 million to sustain this initiative and promote the advancement of Chinese medicine.

In the first half of 2025, SCM has scheduled free Chinese medicine consultation days specifically for low-income individuals every Sunday at its Lui Seng Chun clinic. Eligible individuals will receive free consultation and medication services. For more details, please click here (Chinese version only).

The Tan Siu Lin Foundation was established by Dr Tan Siu-lin, Founder and Chairman of Luen Thai Group. Over the years, it has been a staunch supporter of the University’s development across various areas, particularly in funding SCM’s teaching, research and community care initiatives, as well as supporting the Department of History’s research related to Dr Sun Yat-sen. It is recognised as the Honorary Permanent President of the HKBU Foundation.
