To promote community efforts to beat drugs, the Government established a Beat Drugs Fund in March 1996 with a capital outlay of HK $350 million. The decision to set up the Fund was made at a drug summit meeting in 1995, which brought together Government departments, as well as many organizations in the voluntary sectors engaged in the fight against drug abuse to discuss and to formulate a comprehensive and coordinated strategy against drug abuse.

On 1 February 2016, a seminar was held in which the “Healthy Campus Scheme” was introduced. There were representatives from schools and organizations who shared with the audiences the ways to promote the message of anti-drug taking at school.
