Madam Chu, the first donor to our monthly donation scheme:

"I called the HKCTU for help because my boss was giving me a lot of troubles after my injury at work. The HKCTU helped me a lot to defend my own rights. They are really working for the workers. Though I haven't got a job yet, I still want to make a small contribution and support the HKCTU."
