Although the work of the Hong Kong Anti-Tuberculosis Association is planned moet the needs of this particular community, it is also part of the universal effort to eradicate tuberculosis. Scientists, doctors and others specializing in the treatment of tuberculosis throughout the world have made great discoveries during the last few years and the fruits of their labours are being made available to sufferers of this disease here in Hong Kong who seek the aid of the Hong Kong Anti- Tuberculosis Association.

The future development and extension of the work of the Association dependi very largely upon the Annual Appeal for funds and it is good to remember that every donation represents on investment in health protection for our children and for ourselves.
