This was my little way of helping this fantastic growing group of transracial HK adoptees, and showing how proud I am to be a part of this group.<\/p>\n<p>The logo was based on an idea Kate &amp; Debbie had with a HK and UK flag crossing. I took the\u00a0concept\u00a0and gave it a facelift. On the HK flag is an emblem of the\u00a0<a title=\"Wikipedia - Bauhinia Blakeana flower\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bauhinia_blakeana\">Bauhinia blakeana<\/a> flower, so I found an image of that flower and gave it a bit of a union Jack flare and voila the UK HKAN logo was born =).<\/p>\n<p>The website now gives the group its own space to grow.
