MESSAGE MESSAGE

Our flagship programme, the MusicChildren@Shamshuipo for children between 6 to 12 continues to prosper; we are giving classes to a 100-member orchestra, a 45-member choir, a string ensemble and a percussion group. To enhance the effectiveness of our teaching by extending it to even younger children, we have created a new course – the MusicCradle@Shamshuipo for children aged 2 to 6 who and their accompanying parents/guardians, making it a prequel to the MusicChildren@Shamshuipo.

To bridge out beyond geographical boundaries and to save the inconvenience of commuting to our centre, we have launched an out-reach Chinese Percussion programme to students at Pak Tin Catholic Primary School in Sham Shui Po, the first of its kind which can set the tone for future projects in Shamshuipo district and beyond.

During the year, we continue our engagement with the community through giving 20 public performances : the highlight of which are the 2nd "Music For Everyone" Concert, and the unforgettable Music Children Annual Concert.

I would like to express my gratefulness to our donors and friends for their kindness and generosity. Without them, we would not have had such a great year. My special thank-you must go to the Secretary for Labour and Welfare, Mr Matthew Cheung, GBS, JP, who has twice officiated at our functions. I look forward to their continuous support to help us bring the joy of music to many more underprivileged children in Hong Kong .

Monique PongFounder

As the Music Children Foundation Limited goes into its third year, it gives me great pleasure to highlight some major developments in the past year.

First on the list is a milestone – our move in June to the new centre, a 2,500-sq. ft facility, at Fu Cheong Estate at Shamshuipo, resulting from our partnership with LINK REIT. It provides an excellent space for teaching and office administration. At the same time, we are grateful to the Society for Community Organization(SoCO) for allowing us to use their premises before the move.

Much gratitude to our friends in the media industry, who had helped introducing us to the general public in Hong Kong. Instruments and gifts are donated to us from very generous donors and we deeply appreciated it.

All the above support to MCF are very valuable to us and they strengthen our faith in our work.

In the coming 2016, we will continue to do our best in serve our children and parents with music. Moreover, we would like to extend our mission beyond Sham Shui Po, to those underprivileged families in need of musical training in different area of Hong Kong.

Please continue to support MCF!

Annike PongCo-Founder & Program Director

The past two years of Music Children Foundation Limited (MCF) was full of blessings and grace. Our honorable donors have been supporting us not only financially but also with love, care and positive advice. All your encouragement and suggestion had strengthened our faith as to walk further.

INTRODUCTION OUR TEAM

Music Children Foundation Limited (“MCF”) was established in August 2013 and registered under Section 88 of Inland Revenue Ordinance of Hong Kong since April 2014. We are a small organization but with a “big” heart desiring to bring music learning opportunities to underprivileged families.

Our project was inspired by Venezuela’s music programme “El Sistema”, which believed that “Music has to be recognized as an agent of social development, in the highest sense because it transmits the highest values

- solidarity, harmony, mutual compassion. And it has the ability to unite an entire community and to express sublime feelings”.

MCF provides an early music education, free of charge, to underprivileged children aged from 2 to 12 in the Sham Shui Po area, one of the poorest areas in Hong Kong. In 2014-2015, MCF has reached out to 214 children, as increased from 86 children in 2013-2014.

In addition to the programmes established since the founding of MCF, namely Music Children @ShamShuiPo and Music for Everyone Concert, new programmes and activities have been introduced in 2014-15. They include Music Cradle @ShamShui Po, which aims to provide music training to younger children aged 2 to 6; Drum Fun!, which offers Chinese drum band training to Pak Tin Catholic Primary School students and also features performances and workshops at different LINK REIT sites. We have also endeavoured to cultivate better parent-child relationship by organising more parents’ workshops and talks in the past year.

MUSIC TEACHERS

Music Children Foundation Limited was founded with the support of a group of music professionals, who graduated from The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University and various overseas music institutions. Hence, MCF has strong connection with professionals in these music institutions.

WORDS FROM STUDENTS WORDS FROM PARENTS

"The 6th of September, 2015 was my younger son’s birthday. Although there was no cake, no gifts, and no celebration, he was given the opportunity to perform on stage at the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts as part of the Choir and the Orchestra. This event made the most unforgettable and memorable birthday for my son. Performing on the stage, he found his confidence and his voice. I never thought that he could find such a sense of happiness and bliss through music. I never thought that my typical mischievous son could transform and grow so much. Before joining Music Children Foundation Limited, I never thought that he would have the chance to perform on a real stage. Day by day, he faces a lot of pressures from daily life, yet at MCF, he is able to let go of his pressures and insecurities, and truly be himself. I am immensely grateful to Ms. Monique Pong for giving the children the opportunity to learn and grow under the power of music. I am also grateful to every member of Music Children Foundation Limited, for all the support that you’ve given to my son. Thank you for giving him happiness, and changing our lives into something meaningful and beautiful."

PARENT OF SIU ZI HIN 蕭智軒

“I am very touched, and I am very happy. Music Children Foundation Limited has given my children an opportunity to perform on a real stage, an opportunity of which I never thought they would have.”

PARENT OF LEE TUNG YAT AND LEE SHING HO 李東逸和李承河

“Never in my life that I would have a thought to visit the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts. This year, my son performed on a real stage at the HKAPA. Words cannot describe how I feel. I am very thankful to Ms. Pong, and all the teachers and volunteers for this unforgettable experience. Thank you!”

PARENT OF POON TSZ HONG 潘梓航

"Music Children Foundation Limited - a name that was once unfamiliar to me but has now became my source of happiness and sense of love. MCF has also brought indescribable happiness and hope to our family. A life once filled with pressure from our daily lives and complaints of our difficult living conditions has transformed when my daughter joined MCF. Music enters our lives, and has changed our hearts. MCF shines our heart like warm sun rays of the first light of spring, giving us warmth and hope. MCF is also like a doctor, not only curing every child’s heart, but restoring faith within grassroots families. I would like to thank the person who founded MCF, Ms. Pong, for bringing music to every child, for achieving the extraordinary within the ordinary. Ms. Pong, thank you! I hope MCF continues to bring love and hope to everyone."

PARENT OF WANG MAN FEI 王敏斐

“After this year’s annual concert, I feel very happy and proud of myself. When I heard all the applause from the audience, I felt all my hard work and practice has finally paid off.”

“This year’s annual concert was a very happy experience. I was glad to be able to participate and perform with all the other members of the instrumental class. Before the concert, we had to go to many classes and rehearsals. Even though the practices were difficult, everything was worth it once I walked onto that stage. I was overwhelmed with happiness whilst all my worries and difficulties disappeared.”

LEE SUET TING 李雪庭Instrumental Class

LEE TUNG YAT 李東逸Instrumental Class “Ms. Pong, thank you so much for giving us a

chance to be able to learn a music instrument! ”

“I feel very happy here at MCF and I hope that I can continue to enjoy this great experience with my friends and fellow peers, growing up together, and playing together. I feel so lucky to meet TX, BB and Leung Chi Ho in my life. Although I know that TX and BB have left, I will keep up my hard work and to study well at school. I will strive to get good academic results and to continue learning music happily.”

“Ever since I joined the Flute class here at MCF, I’ve become so much happier. I feel so lucky to be able to take part in the Grade 5 Musical Theory class as it greatly improved my knowledge on and understanding of music rhythm and tempo.”

WORDS FROM VOLUNTEERS WORDS FROM TUTORS

“This is my first time attending a MCF performance. I’ve watched the students during their rehearsals and I could see that everyone was very focused during the performance. I am glad to see that they were very excited, motivated, and happy. This encouraged me to join the volunteer team here at MCF.”

RUBY YAU

As a volunteer at MCF, I can say I feel very privileged. Not only is the experience that I have had with the children, a worthwhile and eye-opening experience, I start to understand the severity of the poverty in Hong Kong and the less privileged situation on which the children lives on. This makes this volunteering experience very valuable and important. Through volunteering at MCF, I feel that I have truly contributed to helping these children to enjoy and appreciate music and hope that I and the other people volunteering here can contribute to make an impact on our local community.”

SQ

“Thank you MCF for the opportunity to start the string ensemble this summer. I am so fortunate to be able to come to work at MCF and get to know all of these incredibly talented children. I will miss MCF and the children very much. I hope you will be able to see how much the children have progressed since the end of June. I would never have thought they could play Canon in D three months ago. I am extremely proud of them.”

BRANDON LIN

“I don’t even know where to start. In less than a year, MCF has become my second home. I would always look forward to helping out, and I would never be tired or bored of it, even if I went 3-4 times every week. I’ve met many people and made many friends at MCF, and will truly miss everyone there. When I first helped out at MCF for the first time, I never would have thought I would get so involved, nor did I think that I would have such a close relationship with the kid.”

TX HO

“I have known Mrs.Wu for almost 9 years and am impressed with her rich imagination and creativity. She found MCF to develop children's horizons and thinking. I actually came from a grassroots background. My father is a taxi driver and my mother is a cleaner. Parents and relatives opposed to the idea for me to learn the violin because of the expensive tuition which was considered somewhat impractical. My mother, on the other hand, insisted to work 3 jobs a day, from dawn to dusk, as a cleaner to earn and support me and my sister to learn violin and piano. Through music, I learnt to understand my characteristic and the essential elements of wellbeing while walking along the path : to work hard, to be persistent, to stay focus, to be patience and be perseverant. I consider myself as an ordinary person but manage to overcome a lot of difficulties through inspiration from these elements. I hope, through learning violin, MCF children will grow up with this positive message - "introduce music to underprivileged children at an early age to cultivate their core values towards building a harmonious society.” – which is also the vision of MCF & mine.”

LEUNG CHI HO - VIOLIN TUTOR

“It costs a lot to learn music.” No one objected to this statement, and everyone believed to trust in this faith until my life gets into Music Children Foundation Limited by Mrs Wu and Miss Pong. No matter in any significant, we could not only balance it with values. Learning is by passion, effort and the most important, is by heart. This feeling is what I could receive when I work along with my colleagues and my students during the past years. This ambiance will be genuine pass along in the future. What I could express is people from any districts, area or stratum in Hong Kong, in the world, should not be limited by where they come from or how they come to the current situation. But we should concern who they are and who they will be. Music Children Foundation Limited (MCF) is not only mentally transforming, improving the students, but also modifying a positive atmosphere in the music industry.I am Jacky Leung, I trusted myself to believe what I felt with MCF, and this feeling is going to be affirmative in the future.

音樂兒童基金會基於以上信念 , 致力為深水埗貧困家庭 2-12 歲兒童提供免費早期音樂教育。深水埗區是香港其中一個最貧困地區 ,2014-15 年間 , 音樂兒童基金會已服務 214 名兒童 , 相對 2013-14 年度 , 增加了 128 名服務使用者。

2014-15 年度 , 音樂兒童基金會除了舉辦核心活動如「音樂兒童 @ 深水埗」、「共樂共融」音樂會外 , 更增辦了「音樂搖籃 @ 深水埗」: 培育 2-6 歲幼兒的音樂潛能 ;「鼓 ‧ 樂 !」: 為白田天主教小學學生提供中國鼓樂訓練 ; 在領展 (LINK REIT ) 旗下商場安排各類音樂表演及工作坊 ; 與此同時 , 各類家長工作坊及講座也持續舉行 , 盼望藉此增加輔導及改善親子關係的機會。

我們熱愛音樂、熱愛社區的信念從未改變。

我們團隊的話 - 學生感言我們團隊的話 - 家長感言

2015 年 9 月 6 日當日正好是兒子的生日，沒有生日蛋糕，沒有禮物慶祝，但這天他卻能夠在香港演藝學院劇院踏上舞台，有幸參加合唱團和弦樂團的演出，度過了難忘的一天，也是他難忘的 8 歲生日。他在舞台上表現的自信，陶醉於音樂帶給他的快樂確實是出乎我的意外。想不到平時頑皮的兒子也可以變得如此美好。

在還沒有參加音樂兒童基金會之前，真是從來沒有想到他會有這樣的變化，及表演的機會，日常生活面對的種種壓力，能有這樣難得的機會給予心靈的放鬆，全賴音樂兒童基金會所有工作人員。藉此機會我特別感謝胡龐倩渝女士，結予小兒學習音樂的機會，還要感謝音樂兒童基金會付出的所有人，我衷心地感謝您們給予的幫助，感恩您們令我們的生活變得豐富多彩！

學生蕭智軒的家長

「我很感動，也很開心。因為有音樂兒童基金會，所以我的小朋友有機會在台上表演！」

學生李東逸和李承河的家長

「我很開心，之前從來沒有想過可以去的地方 --- 香港演藝學院，確實很難形容我的心情，因為我的兒子竟然可以在那裡表演。感謝胡太、龐老師、梁老師、馬老師，還有很多有心的義工。謝謝！」

學生潘梓航的家長

「音樂兒童基金會，一個從陌生到熟悉，從平淡到熱愛的名字，是你帶給我們家快樂和希望。曾幾何時我們為生活而煩惱，為狹窄的居所而發嘮叨。因女兒參加了「音樂兒童」計劃而發生了改變。音樂在我們心中潛移默化。音樂兒童就像春天裡的陽光，使我們感受到了溫暖，看見了希望；你又像治療師，不僅治癒了兒童的心靈，而且舒緩了草根家庭的情緒問題。也就是你，一個給音樂兒童生命的人，一個從平凡的工作上做出不平凡成績的人。胡太，謝謝你！願音樂兒童基金會愈來愈好，讓更多的人受惠！」

學生王敏斐的家長

“我參加了今年的週年音樂會真是很開心，也是一個難得的經驗，可以和其他樂器班的成員，有的拉琴、有的吹奏，一起的合奏樂曲。在表演前要一邊兼顧上課，一邊練習要表演的歌曲和參與綵排。雖然之前會辛苦些，但上台表演是很開心的事，令我完全忘記了上台前的緊張感和辛苦呢。”

李東逸樂器班 ( 大提琴 )

“胡太，你好。多謝您給宇禧、宇航一個機會，可以學習樂器。特別看到宇禧的改變 --- 身體上的協調上也得到很大的改變。所以，在這次表演裡，我很多謝胡太和我們的媽咪”！因為媽咪一直在我背後支持，也很感謝胡太給我一個表演的機會，所以真的很感激您。多謝！”

“我感到非常快樂，希望可以和同學仔開開心心繼續下去。在音樂兒童基金會與同學一起成長，一起玩耍，使我感到非常快樂。我可以認識 TX，BB 哥哥和Leung Chi Ho 老師。我知道 TX 和 BB 哥哥走了 ( 去外國 )，但我會努力 Fighting and 加油，專心去學，創造更好成績。加油！繼續開心地學樂器。”

“自從我參加了長笛班，令我更加開朗。我很幸運能夠入到五級樂理精英班，增加了我對拍子、旋律、節奏等的認識。”

濮宗儒樂器班 ( 中提琴 )

王林雯樂器班 ( 長笛 )

陳宇航 , 陳宇禧樂器班 ( 薩克管、敲擊樂 ) 及合唱團

“我覺得可以在這個週年音樂會演出令我很開心和自豪。能夠聽到掌聲，我就覺得練習的所有東西都沒有白費。”

我們團隊的話 - 義工感言我們團隊的話 - 導師感言

“這是我第一次參與音樂兒童基金會的活動，在協助學生們的綵排和表演當天，觀察到他們很認真，全情投入的參與，而且他們的興奮雀躍也感染了我，所以使我決定參加音樂兒童基金會的恆常義工隊。當然，音樂兒童基金會內各位的愛心也是重要原因和推動力。”

RUBYYAU

“作為音樂兒童基金會的義務導師，我感到非常榮幸。不僅是我與孩子相處帶來的寶貴而擴闊視野的經驗，而是讓我開始更了解香港貧窮孩子處身在弱勢情況下的嚴重程況。使這份義務服務非常之寶貴和重要。透過在MCF 當義工，我覺得我真正的幫助這些孩子們享受和欣賞音樂，並希望和我一樣在這裡當義工的其他人在服務同時對本地社會帶來正面的影響力。”

SQ

“這個音樂會是我參加過最令人感動的一個。我很榮幸被胡太請來指揮弦樂團，得到了一個很寶貴的經驗。這些小朋友都成為了我的好朋友。我很高興能夠教導他們。看到小朋友這三個月的成長和拉琴的能力有進步，我也很開心，很有成就感。希望以後還有機會再回來音樂兒童基本會幫忙，再跟小朋友互動！ .”

林政緯

“我甚至不知道從什麼時候開始。在一年不到的時間內， MCF 已經成為我的第二個家。我總非常期待去擔當義務，即使每星期會去那裡 3-4 次，我也好像永遠不會覺得疲累或厭倦的。在 MCF那裡我認識了很多人及很多好朋友，所以我會非常懷念他們每一位。記得當我第一次在 MCF 做義工，從來沒有想到我會如此委身投入，我也從沒想到我會與孩子建立起這麼密切的關係呢。

TXHO

“跟胡太認識快 9 年了。她想像力豐富，創意極高。她將這些創意注入了MCF，開拓兒童的眼界及思維，難能可貴。其實我也是基層出身，父親為的士司機，母親是清潔工人。當時父親及親戚們都反對我學習小提琴，認為學費昂貴及不實際。唯獨母親每天早午晚做三份清潔工，讓我和妹妹可以學習小提琴和鋼琴。學習音樂令我認識自己及學懂刻苦、堅持、專注、毅力、耐性和恆心等做人的必要特質。自問資質平庸，但憑著以上特質衝過不少難關。我亦希望將以上特質，透過小提琴，感染 MCF 的孩子，為他們帶來正面的訊息 --「藉音樂改變兒童生命並為整個社會創造正面價值」，這也是MCF 和我的願景。”

梁智豪—小提琴導師

“學習音樂是很花費的”相信沒有人反對這種說法，而且大家都相信這個信念，直到胡太及龐小姐將音樂兒童基金會帶到我的生命裡。無論任何事，我們都不能只著眼於價值。學習是由激情及努力，而更重要的，就是由心而發。這種感覺是從我在過去幾年間與我的同事和學生合作中領受到的。這份氣氛將一直切切實實的延續到未來。我最想表達的是無論在世界、或在香港，無論來自任何地區、地方或階層的人，都不應該受著自身背景和出身所限制。我們應該更關心他們是誰和他們能成為一個怎樣的人。音樂兒童基金會（MCF ）不僅在精神層面上塑造及改變學生，更為他們締造一個正面理想去學習音樂的環境。

我是梁國章。我堅信我自己對 MCF 的體會和感受，並會以此感覺肯定我的未來。”

梁國章–管樂團指揮及薩克管導師
