Dear HKU Marathon Team Member,

Thank you for joining the HKU Marathon Team. Over 1,800 alumni, students, staff and friends of the University will run with the Vice-Chancellor Lap-Chee Tsui and Pro-Vice-Chancellor C F Lee at the Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon on March 4, 2007!

We are proud of you not only for daring to take the Marathon challenge but also for your endorsement of our aims:

• Building unity

• Promoting fitness of mind and body

• Developing the Marathon spirit

We believe that a strong mind starts with a strong body. To support our students in building up their mind, body and spirit, a Sports Fund will be set up under the management of the Dean of Student Affairs and the Centre of Development and Resources for Students (CEDARS). It will support students in organising and participating in sport activities.

Please invite your families and friends to support you in the Marathon by making donations to the University of Hong Kong in support of the Sports Fund. The “Stanley Ho Alumni Challenge” will give us the opportunity to double the value of your gift to HKU. Any donations from alumni and students will be matched dollar-for-dollar by our alumnus Dr Stanley Ho.

United We Run, United We Support Our Students!  Let’s take the challenge and together we support our students.

Yours faithfully,

Professor Paul Cheung
Chairman
Organising Committee of HKU Marathon Team
