Transatlantica was the theme of the Youth Diabetes Action (YDA) dinner held at the Kowloon International Trade Centre (KITEC) in Kowloon Bay. A high point of the night was when Joanna Hotung, the chairwoman of the YDA took to the stage, accompanied by a small group of children who benefit from the YDA’s services, to make a heartfelt pledge to the audience, Joanna spoke about the daily hardships that children with type 1 diabetes face. A live and silent auction took place during the evening which raised over HK$2 million, with all proceeds benefitting the YDA.
