HFW have arranged a 'global day of action' in support of their preferred charity, The Mission to Seafarers who provide help and support to 1.5 million crewmen and women who face danger every day to keep our global economy afloat. On Thursday 21st November, members of the HFW Hong Kong office will be competing to row the furthest distance and the fastest time in a set duration.

Any and all donations will be gratefully received!

HFW's shipping group has chosen The Mission to Seafarers as its first-ever global charity partner. Over three years, HFW's Shipping group will offer legal, practical and financial support to The Mission to Seafarers to support its essential welfare work with seafarers around the globe.

The partnership involves direct practical and legal support as well as an annual financial donation to the charity. HFW has pledged to offer pro bono legal counsel to support the effective governance of the charity and compliance with local regulations in the regions in which it works.

HFW's partnership with the Mission will help them to continue their ongoing support of thousands of seafarers around the world every day. This ranges from helping seafarers keep in contact with their friends and families back home up to care and support in crisis situations.
