Launched in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in April 2020, the Hong Kong Community Foundation’s “Clap for HK” initiative aimed to show support and gratitude for the city’s healthcare workers and other front-line workers by encouraging people to clap their hands in appreciation of the unsung heroes who have been working tirelessly to keep the community safe from the pandemic. Widely embraced by the community, the thoughtful gesture helped boost the morale of these dedicated workers.
