To help cope with the housing scarcity and improve the living conditions of the underprivileged, and in support of the government's housing policy, SHKP lent a conveniently located plot of land in Tung Tau, Yuen Long, to the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Welfare Council to build the United Court transitional housing project, for a nominal rent of HK$1. After completion in 2022, United Court, which spans 250,000 square feet, will provide 1,800 units, and be operated by the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Welfare Council. The project will ultimately benefit about 5,000 low-income families and 10,000 people.
