New York - 18 November, 2024 - Dr. Sabrina Ho, celebrated philanthropist and advocate for gender equality, marked a transformative moment in global peace and justice by donating $100,000 to the AFS [https://afs.org/] Fund for Global Peace and Justice. During the televised signing, she sketched the letter "S" onto the century-old iconic "She Who Serves, Also Gives" poster, symbolizing her commitment to advancing female leadership and social justice.

The gesture underscores Dr. Ho's new chapter, a redefined mission for young women leaders to carry forward the torch of change. This is especially significant as the AFS Youth Assembly opens applications next August, inviting young leaders globally to join the call for peace and justice initiatives.

"Global peace is a shared responsibility," Dr. Ho stated during the ceremony. "With this fund, we will empower future generations-particularly young women-to lead boldly and reshape our world. I urge you, young leaders: embrace this moment, stand with us, and serve as catalysts for positive change."

She continued with an impassioned call to action, emphasizing the significance of youth empowerment and multilateralism. "Our world stands at a pivotal point. Let us renew our values, prioritize our planet, and champion human rights, particularly for young girls. Girls' education is the bedrock of social justice, the foundation upon which we can build equitable societies."

The AFS Fund [https://afs.org/] for Global Peace and Justice, fortified by Dr. Ho's support, aims to equip young leaders with essential skills for tackling global challenges. Initially, the fund will offer scholarships for AFS Youth Assembly participants, with plans to expand into intercultural exchange programs promoting peace and understanding.

This initiative aligns closely with Dr. Ho's legacy as a pioneer for girls' education and youth empowerment. As President of the Dr. Stanley Ho Foundation, her efforts have continuously advocated for girls' access to education and gender equality-a mission that stems from her belief in the power of education to shape a just society. By empowering young women, Dr. Ho envisions a future where "she who serves, also gives" becomes a guiding principle for leaders worldwide.

Through her roles as Managing Director of Chiu Yeng Culture and CEO of Poly Auction Macau, Dr. Ho has gained a reputation as a leader dedicated to elevating the roles of women and young leaders. Her philanthropic vision has brought forth opportunities for thousands of young people, encouraging them to drive social change.
