A flag day (Chinese: 賣旗日) in Hong Kong is a day on which public fundraising of charities takes place. Organised public fundraising in Hong Kong must be government-approved. Historically, it had been held only on a Saturday. It is currently, however, organised on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Flag-selling (賣旗) hours are from 7:00 in the morning to 12:30 in the afternoon on a flag day.

  • 賣旗籌款（英語：Flag-selling），俗稱賣旗，是香港慈善機構籌款的一項模式。慈善機構邀請大量義工，在街頭上向市民募捐。義工拿著一個錢袋和大量小貼紙（昔日是小旗幟，因而得名），當市民投放金錢於錢袋後，義工會將小貼紙貼在捐款者的衣服上，以作識別。 (zh)

  • A flag day (Chinese: 賣旗日) in Hong Kong is a day on which public fundraising of charities takes place. Organised public fundraising in Hong Kong must be government-approved. Historically, it had been held only on a Saturday. It is currently, however, organised on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Flag-selling (賣旗) hours are from 7:00 in the morning to 12:30 in the afternoon on a flag day. On a flag day, volunteers with some stock of "flags" and a bag to collect donations (money) stand on streets to raise funds from passers-by. In the past, actual small flags were handed out to people who gave money. Nowadays, people receive a little sticker, which typically bears the name and logo of the beneficiary, to place on their clothing after they donate money. Those stickers for particular use in a flag day are still called "flags", in both English and Cantonese. (en)
