New World Group Spreads Love and Care to the Community Creating Large Greeting Card Mosaic to Break Guinness World Record

New World Development Company Limited (the “Group”; Stock Code: 17.HK) invited guests at its annual Group Fun Day to write messages on greeting cards for creating a large mosaic in an attempt to break Guinness World Record. To spread love and care to society, the Group distributed the greeting cards and over 2,000 Christmas gift sets to NGOs in different districts during Christmas. Giving under-resourced youths the best wishes made the attempt to break Guinness World Record even more meaningful.

With a commitment to care for the needy, the Group gave out 2,000-plus gift sets and greeting cards to the Society for Community Organisation, Christian Action, Tung Wah Group of Hospitals Tuen Mun Integrated Services Centre, the Neighborhood Advice-Action Council and other NGOs, bringing festive cheer to under-resourced children and their families.

All the greeting cards with Group Fun Day guests’ wishes were used to form a large mosaic in an attempt to break Guinness World Record. It was also a great way to promote the spirit of goodwill among Group staff and other guests.
