Non-profit Cause

Devoting over half a century to social causes, FENC aims to improve the wellbeing for all.

FENC has dedicated itself to non-profit and charitable causes for half a century with the belief of “benefiting from the society, returning benefits to the society”. By tapping into the Company’s core strength and infusing capital, we promote public wellbeing, expand on international perspectives and improve competitiveness for society as a whole, which will help us invent a new century.

Amount Invested in Social Engagement and Percentage to Profits After Tax

Note:
1. The total amount invested in social engagement includes the main subsidiaries on FENC’s consolidated statement. Among them, FarEasTone Telecommunications, Co., Ltd publishes its own Sustainability Report.
2. The 2020 social engagement investment grew considerably by 71% compared to 2019 due to a donation totaling NT$118.751 million for the establishment of Y. Z. Hsu International Conference Hall. Without this donation in 2021, the total dropped by 53% compared to 2020.

FENC has long maintained a good relationship with local communities at its business locations, engaging community organizations and providing resources, such as offering venues for community assemblies or fire drills. We help the underprivileged members of the community. We also conduct beach cleanup campaigns and help schools and local neighborhoods clean their environment, fully utilizing our strength to raise public awareness of environmental protection and recycling. In 2021, the volunteer hours among the volunteers of all business sites amounted to 4,136 hours. The followings are the key events held in 2022.

The year 2022 is marked by meaningful social engagement for FENC. To name a few, the Company designed an environmental education program focusing on circular economy for the fifth and sixth graders. Beginning in 2023, the Company is offering free lessons at elementary schools adjacent to FENC production sites in Taiwan. OPTC collaborated with the local environmental education association for the disadvantaged, visiting underprivileged families in Kuanyin District and presenting care packages. FEAV provided financial assistance for 424 children in two orphanages. Some of them are orphans, some are minority children, and some are from families under hardship. At APG Polytech, staff lent a helping hand to families in need by donating food during Thanksgiving.

FENC believes in “benefitting from the society, returning benefits to the society.” The Company has been branching into charitable causes since the 1960s, devoting attention to education, arts, culture, healthcare and technology while dedicating corporate resources to humanitarian care for local communities. It is the hope that by providing long-term support in social engagement, FENC will bring warmth to all who are in need.
