History

Tai Tung Pui Day Care Centre for the Elderly, the first established day care centre for the elderly of Tung Wah, is situated on the ground floor of the Tai Tung Pui Social Service Building and first started its service in April 1991. Apart from Lotteries Fund support, Tung Wah was very fortunate to have a generous donation from Madam Tai Lung Wing-yuen in support of meeting the capital cost of the building. As a gesture of the group’s cordial gratitude, our Centre was named after Madam Tai’s late husband Mr. Tai Tung-pui to manifest has virtue.
