Established on 1 March 2006 by the Ying Wa Girls’ School (YWGS) Alumnae Association, the AA Trust Fund serves as a vital bridge between our storied history and a vibrant future.
Our mission is to ensure that Ying Wa continues to provide an education defined by quality, experience, and global exposure. While we remain in the public sector to uphold the principle of educational equity, the Trust Fund provides the essential resources needed to offer our students a truly holistic, high-quality learning experience that transcends the standard curriculum.
To ensure the standards of stewardship, the Fund is registered as a charitable organization with tax-exempt status under Section 88 of the Inland Revenue Ordinance (Cap. 112).
Our resources are managed with transparency and care, governed by the Deed of Trust and overseen by a dedicated Board of Trustees. This team comprises the Principal, a staff representative, appointed representatives from the Alumnae Association, and alumnae with specialized expertise in financial management and investment.
Our Objectives
The Trust Fund is guided by three primary objectives:
1
Expanding Educational Horizons
Providing diverse opportunities for students to engage in experiential learning that extends well beyond the classroom and school walls.
2
Maintaining the Alumnae Community
Supporting activities or events that foster the growth of the Ying Wa community, ensuring a lifelong connection between the school and the alumni.
3
Preserving Legacy
Honouring the legacy, heritage and traditions of the past while actively developing the physical and intellectual space required for the future growth of the school.
Sustaining Ying Wa Spirit – Two Decades of Impact
Since 2005, the AA Trust Fund has channelled over $8 million into initiatives that foster holistic development, strengthen the bonds of our community and preserve our cherished heritage.
Empowering the Next Generation
We believe education transcends the classroom. More than half of our funds are dedicated to creating transformative learning journeys that shape well-rounded learners.
Spiritual Growth: Nurturing faith through religious guidance and the gift of the Word.
Global Horizons: Expanding perspectives with extraordinary expeditions, including once-in-a-lifetime journeys to the South Pole.
Experiential Learning: Building resilience and entrepreneurship through programs such as Outward Bound programs and the annual Lunar New Year Fair.
Aesthetic Excellence: Cultivating creativity through international tours and performances.
Academic Recognition: Establishing scholarships that honor excellence and support potential.
Strengthening Bond in our Community
We believe the Ying Wa community is a lifelong home. We invest in the ties that bind us, ensuring that new connections are continuously built across generations.
Homecoming Days: Welcoming alumnae back to the campus where it all began.
Mentorship Programs: Bridging the gap between generations to provide guidance and inspiration for younger sisters.
Preserving Our Legacy
Our history is our identity. We have dedicated $3 million to meticulously documenting our school’s transformation, ensuring that the stories, milestones, and heritage remain vibrant for future generations.

In 2026, we are introducing the vision and mission of the AA Trust Fund again, and invite the support of our alumni and friends to join us in rebuilding the resources that sustain our primary missions.
We aim to grow the Trust Fund to a principal of $8 to $10 million over the next decade, ensuring a self-sustaining annual yield of approximately $400,000 through prudent, low-risk strategies. This endowment will serve as a sustainable pillar of support, dedicated to enriching our students’ holistic education, especially in Sports and Aesthetic development, while continuing to foster a lifelong bond with our alumni community and preserving the legacy and heritage of our school.
We humbly invite alumni and friends of Ying Wa to contribute to the AA Trust Fund, helping us secure a self-sustaining foundation that will nurture our students and strengthen our bond for generations to come.
