Introduction to Stedfast Association, Hong Kong Limited

Stedfast Association,Hong Kong Limited (SAHK) is an organization that offers support and help to The Boys' Brigade, Hong Kong.  Her main duty is responsible for the sales and purchase of BBHK members' uniform, accessories and souvenirs.

SAHK is founded in 1991.  Most members are former boys or former officers of BBHK.  Not only did they learn self-discipline and self-respect through the activities of The Boys' Brigade, they also accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour during the fellowship time.   "Without The Boys' Brigade, I can't become who I am today.  At The Boys' Brigade, I was given a chance to accept Christ as my personal Saviour.  What's more, life at BB moulded me into a citizen contributing to the society." said a member of SAHK.

We have had about one hundred members, most of whom are Christians and had worked with The Boys' Brigade before.  They are all eager for the future development of The Boys' Brigade and are willing to offer help.
 

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of SAHK is constituted of not less than nine members, four of which are recommended by the Executive Committee of BBHK with Brigade Secretary as the ex officio member.  Another four Directors of the Board are elected by members of SAHK in its AGM.  Other members are co opted after the formation of the Board.  The new Board has its first general meeting in January every year.  All the Directors then elect from among themselves for the posts of Chairperson, Vice-chairperson, Treasurer and Secretary etc.
