Title

HELENA MAY

Description

Situated in a distinctive heritage building in the heart of Hong Kong, The Helena May is a welcoming and affordable organisation for women of all nationalities and from all walks of life. From the outset, The Helena May has been an organisation for women led by women. The driving force was Lady May who, as President of the Y.W.C.A and mother of four daughters, was very aware of the lack of facilities for women and girls in Hong Kong. She provided leadership and direction to The Helena May in the early years that set a strong foundation.
