To promote the concepts of “Bring Your Own Bottle” and refilling from water dispensers, in the hope of replacing disposable bottled water, Go Green Hong Kong, launched the “Water for Free” campaign in 2011. In 2018, Great Eagle Group sponsored Go Green Hong Kong for the first time to enable it to work with Healthy Seed joining the “Water for Free” campaign to install water dispensers in Hong Kong, offering free, clean and safe drinking water. In addition, educational talks are being organized in kindergartens, primary schools and community centers, etc to raise public awareness on environmental protection. To maximize the impact of the campaign, Great Eagle Group will arrange for exhibitions on water resources to be held at its properties and invite universities to host the exhibitions on their campus.
