Introduction
The Alice Ho Miu Ling Nethersole Charity Foundation is well established with a history of one and a quarter centuries. In 1887, Sir Kai Ho Kai generously made a donation for the building of the Alice Memorial Hospital in memory of her beloved wife who died in 1884. It was the first hospital in Hong Kong that served the local poor Chinese with western medicine. The Hospital, under the management of the former London Missionary Society (now known as the Council for World Mission), aimed to serve patients and the community with the love, tenderness and care of Christ. Two other hospitals, Nethersole Hospital and Ho Miu Ling Hospital, were commissioned in 1893 and 1906 respectively. The three hospitals were then incorporated by Ordinance under the corporate name of The Executive Committee of The Alice Ho Miu Ling Nethersole Hospital ("EC, AHNH") in 1954.
