We aim for a healthier, a more inclusive society, then we must help the elders continue with a healthier, creative, and meaningful life.
Active Ageing – Gung Ho Project
Sinyi Charity Foundation launched the “Active Ageing – Gung Ho Project" since 2016 to responded to the challenges of aging society and declining birthrates. With the goal of prolonging the healthy and independent lives of the elderly and improving their happiness, it successfully collected ideas across 4 generations.
Taiwan is facing a super-aging society, and “co-existence community" is one of the important solutions to this challenge. With years of experience in promoting cross-generation and cross-field learning, Sinyi Charity Foundation assists local communities to develop sustainable model as benchmark cases.
Vulnerable Care – Dr. Red Nose Project
Sinyi Charity Foundation cares not only about the elderly, but also about the future masters of the country. We support Dr. Red Nose Program since 2016, hoping to bring strength to encouragement through magic performance to sick children, their families, and the hard-working medical staff. The program begins to expand services to nursing home seniors. In 2025, we expanded our efforts significantly. We conducted 165 performances, reaching 2,472 people. A notable achievement of publication of "Taiwan's first research study on how medical clowns improve the emotional state of parents with children battling cancer“ was made in 2023. This research highlighted that parents experience significant psychological distress while their children are hospitalized for cancer treatment. The medical clown service helps by improving the children's emotional state, which in turn positively affects the parents' emotional well-being. We're proud to continue this important work, bringing smiles and support to those who need it most during challenging times.
Vulnerable Care – Art Project for rural elders
To enhance community bonding among residents and to introduce outsiders to the local culture of Guye village, this year we continue to hold a picnic music and sketching event. The event welcomed local elders, children, and families to enjoy the outdoors together and strengthen community bonds. It also invited visitors from outside the area to explore the unique culture and traditions of Guye Village, while children’s drawings and footprints captured and preserved the beauty of the community.
