The “Holiday Wishes Charity Postcards” fundraiser, back for the fourth year in a row, will send out tens of thousands of Christmas wishes to the family and friends of resort guests.

The cards will cost HK$10 (US$1.2) each and all the proceeds will be given to OSC, a joint charity drive organised by the Post and public broadcaster RTHK, now in its 35th year.

“This year, guests can purchase four new Disney festival-themed postcards, which include the beloved Duffy and Friends franchise and their new friend, Lina Bell,” Mary Lam, the director of merchandise at the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort, said.

Lam added guests at the resort would not only be able to send good wishes to loved ones, but also bring a smile to the faces of those in need.

“Hong Kong Disneyland Resort is honoured to continue delivering these Christmas blessings to the community through the OSC donation which allows guests to actually help others while sending Christmas wishes to their loved ones,” Lam said.
