After participating in the donation for the 921 earthquake in 1999, Walsin Technology’s employees discovered that there were still many disadvantaged children and elderly people in Taiwan who needed long-term assistance through organized groups. Therefore, they spontaneously established the "WTC Charity Foundation" in April 2000, with NTD100 per month withheld from their monthly salaries as funds for donation. This plan received the encouragement and support from the President Chu, You-Yi at that time, and the Company also allocated the same amount as the employee salary donation amount to double the effect. Subsequently, the members actively increased the fixed salary donation amount according to their own abilities, and from then on, the WTC Charity Foundation has more strength to be dedicated to social welfare activities. Later in April 2007, the Ministry of the Interior registered and approved the establishment of the "ROC WTC Charity Foundation", which officially became a national association.
Dedicated to helping vulnerable children in remote areas
The WTC Charity Foundation has been utilizing limited resources to continuously assist disadvantaged children in remote areas for a long time, providing assistance in nutritional meals, after-school tutoring, book supplementation, repair of teaching equipment, transportation, and children's sports shoes.
In addition to continuous cooperating with rural schools to improve the quality of education for disadvantaged children, the director and relevant officials visited the adopted units every year to provide appropriate support for the needs of each school, hoping that students can have better resources and to broaden their horizons in their learning process.
