TTM, Tsung Tsin Mission of Hong Kong
The Tsung Tsin Mission of Hong Kong (TTM) is extremely active in the social sector: it runs six secondary schools, four elementary school and six kindergartens. It runs six day-care centers, a youth center, an old people's home and three day centers for the elderly. Together with TTM and Christian Action (CA), Mission 21 runs a counseling and support service for Indonesian migrant women who work as domestic workers in Hong Kong and are often exploited or sexually abused. The women receive legal and moral help, can find refuge in an emergency center if needed, and improve their skills through language and computer courses. Today, the TTM has 9,000 members in 26 congregations and was founded in 1847 by two missionaries from the Basel Mission in cooperation with German churches. The TTM was therefore originally called the "Basel Church".
