About Us

  •  You Can Change A Child’s Life 

    Lifewire - Hong Kong’s very first crowdfunding platform for children with rare diseases


    Founded in 2014 by Chun Wo Development Holdings Limited, Lifewire brings together patients, charities, donors, and medical experts into a tightly-knit community to provide a channel for those in need to receive help. 

    By documenting each patient’s story through text and video, we strive to share their narrative with the public to:

    ●        Raise funds to provide urgent medical care for children with rare diseases and to support patients’ long-term medical needs  
    ●        Promote an inclusive society by increasing public awareness of rare diseases through community education

The dilemma of patients and their families

Insufficient funding and support、exorbitant medical expenses、social stigma......
