Liu Shang-lan says that the association's purpose is to encourage children to pursue higher studies. Therefore, eligibility standards only require that the children have passing grades in their classes and receive a mark of at least 80 out of 100 for conduct. Last year, 46 children received the association's scholarships.
劉香蘭指出，紅心字會的立意在支持孩子向上，因此只要學業成績及格、操行達八十分，就合乎紅心字會的助學標準，去年有四十六個孩子獲得獎勵。
