Background
SBHK is a Hong Kong based voluntary agency established in 1960 (IR File no. 91/1498). SBHK reflects the generosity and benevolence of the Good Samaritan in the Bible who always stretched forth a helping hand to the distressed and helpless. Through the giving of support and rendering emotional counselling to those in need, we help them to help themselves.
Mission:
- To befriend, on humanitarian grounds, people who are facing difficulties or are lonely and depressed, by helping them to regain confidence in life.
-To publicize and promote the spirit of our service in the community through talks, seminars, research and other means of community service.
-To help in the South East Asia and neighbouring areas to set up organizations with a nature and mission similar to ours.
Mission & Vision
1. We establish ourselves as the Samaritan Befrienders Hong Kong to bring out in full the benevolence in human nature, and with love, patience and compassion, nurture the spirit of mutual aid, mutual support and mutual affection.
2. We give the hopeless, the helpless and the suicidally inclined a listener when they need one so that they can relate their inner pain and distress.
3. We let help seekers feel accepted and supported so as to enable them to overcome emotional distress and face up to their problems.
4. We respect the right of help seekers in self-determination even if they decide to commit suicide, and also their right to discontinue contact with us at any time.
5. We respect the privacy of help seekers and will not disclose their personal information to any outside party. Such information would only keep by us for the purpose of providing effective service. Our Chairman and supervisory officers have the right to get access to detail of cases. No service shall be provided should a help seeker find this unacceptable.
6. We shall not take advantage of our contact with help seekers to instill personal values, faith or political stance.
