And Then a Hero Comes Along…

The Love Hero Campaign invited everyone in the Hong Kong head office to nominate their heroic colleagues on staff social app WatsUp. The response was overwhelming with an amazing 11,000+ nominations were received in just two weeks. From thousands of nominations, 18 Love Heroes were selected.
