Philanthropy is a very personal decision - the who, what, why and how much of giving are determined by life experiences, and the very act of giving has an impact on the giver.
For long-time Hong Kong resident Tim Huxley, a board director of children's charity Half the Sky, it was holding a six-week-old orphan on the mainland that tweaked the heartstrings.
Abandoned at a railway station, the baby had been brought to the charity's Beijing centre to be cared for before being taken to hospital to have a tumour removed and her spine straightened.
