The Hong Kong Correctional Services Department's own page describing the Fung Ying Seen Koon Education Fund, a two year subsidy scheme it set up in 2025 with a HK$400,000 donation from the Fung Ying Seen Koon organization to support incarcerated students' education and vocational training. Its strength is that this is the receiving government department's own confirmation of a donation made to it, not merely a claim the donor organization makes about itself. Its limit is that it describes the fund's terms and purpose rather than independently verifying how the money is ultimately spent.
