Victoria, Seychelles, November 28, 2025 — Bitget, the world’s largest universal exchange (UEX), will donate US$1.54 million (HK$12 million) to provide full support to the families affected by the Wang Fu Court fire in Tai Po, Hong Kong, and support community rebuilding efforts.
The donation is in response to Hong Kong’s worst residential fire in decades, after a five-alarm fire broke out in multiple towers at the Wang Fu Court House on November 26, killing at least 128 people, injuring more than 70 and forcing more than 900 residents to take temporary shelter.
Following the incident, authorities have launched a criminal and corruption investigation into the safety of the renovation work and materials used at the site, while emergency teams continue search, rescue and recovery operations and families work to locate their missing relatives.
To ensure that assistance reaches those in need in a systematic and responsible manner, Biggett has ordered a donation of HK$12 million (approximately US$1.54 million) to three of Hong Kong’s most trusted charities.
Yan Chai Hospital will receive HK$5 million (US$640,000) to support emergency medical services, treatment of the injured and rehabilitation of affected families.
The Salvation Army Hong Kong will receive HK$3.5 million (approximately US$450,000) to provide financial support, temporary accommodation, basic necessities and livelihood support to households who have lost their homes and incomes.
Mr Po Leung Kuk will receive HK$3.5 million (approximately US$450,000) to provide psychological counseling, community support and long-term case follow-up for survivors, bereaved families and vulnerable residents in surrounding areas.
The relief fund is structured to ensure that every dollar is spent in a transparent, timely and targeted manner, complementing the Hong Kong government’s emergency measures, temporary housing arrangements and ongoing inspections of residential areas during rehabilitation.
Our partner charities help families navigate the aftermath of a disaster and the long road to recovery through medical assistance, financial support, mental health services and on-the-ground community action.
Biguette stands with Hong Kong during this difficult time and wishes affected residents the ability to rebuild their homes and communities as quickly and safely as possible, and extends our condolences to all those who lost loved ones in the Wang Fu Courtroom fire.
