Trust Tomorrow
Since Swire began operating in Hong Kong 150 years ago, the group has been steadfast in its commitment to the city – not just as a long-term investor, but as a supportive and caring corporate citizen. The Swire Group Charitable Trust (“Swire Trust”) is launching a new funding initiative, TrustTomorrow, as part of our ongoing pledge to give back to the community that has helped us to thrive over the past century and a half.
