The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the support work of social welfare organizations. Yuanta Financial Holdings (FHC) invites everyone to donate to help those in need through Yuanta Bank’s “Give Love, Give Warmth” platform. In order to provide the public with a more convenient cash flow mechanism, Yuanta Bank’s “Give Love, Give Warmth” donation platform has been completely upgraded with a more user-friendly interface. You can directly click on “Online Transfer” and “Credit Card” two simple donation methods to donate your share to spread the warmth. Since its establishment in 1997, the “Give Love, Give Warmth” platform has delivered 16,635 pieces of love to beneficiaries supported by 23 social welfare foundations, with donations exceeding NT$ 20 million, fully playing the role of a charity platform, so that people who want to do charity work can have more channels to give back to the society with their love. Now the donation function is newly upgraded. As long as you use Yuanta Bank credit card, you can easily donate online. Or, you can use any bank’s chip-enabled financial card and card reader to connect a network of love with the touch of a finger and warm the life of the recipient. Yuanta FHC has always been at the forefront of public welfare and has contributed to social co-prosperity. After the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic at the beginning of this year, Yuanta has received responses from many social welfare organizations that their donations have dropped by 20% to 30% compared to the same period last year, and they need urgent corporate assistance. In August this year, Yuanta FHC and its five major subsidiaries jointly donated the “Economy Revitalization Love Cards” (convenience store cash cards) with a face value of NT$ 3,000 each to seven social welfare organizations. The total amount exceeded NT$100 million, benefiting more than 100,000 people in more than 30,000 families. “Because of my husband’s illness, I often had to take care of him at the hospital and could not take care of the children’s meals, especially during the summer holidays when we were without mandatory school lunches. Having a ‘Love Card’ for the kids to use when they are hungry is really helpful to our family,” feedback from a recipient, who was worried about her children’s next meal, and whose anxiety has been temporarily eased. For many families, the “timely rain” donated by the Yuanta Group immediately relieved their urgent financial needs, but more caring members of the public will need to lend a helping hand to meet their future needs. Deepening social welfare, in addition to donations, Yuanta FHC is committed to multifaceted community involvement. Through the Yuanta Cultural and Educational Foundation, volunteers have been called on from within the Yuanta Group to participate in the “Yuanta Happiness Day” event and tailor-made “Happiness Gift Packs” were given away to students from rural areas. Furthermore, Yuanta also designed a variety of fun and educational activities to broaden students’ horizons through games, accompanied by volunteers of the Yuanta Group.

The power to change begins with caring! Yuanta Financial Holdings (FHC), as a leading brand in Taiwan’s financial and securities industries, integrates Group resources, protects the wealth of customers with care, and spares no effort in cultivating young students. Yuanta FHC and Yuanta Cultural and Educational Foundation today (September 5) invited past recipients of the Yuanta Scholarship for Outstanding Underprivileged Talent to return to Yuanta “natal family” to participate in the “Yuanta Scholarship Recipients Exchange Meeting.” The Foundation also invited Yuanta’s senior executives of strategy and human resources to add to and save the value of students’ “personal network passbooks” in advance through experience transfer. We at the same time requested three outstanding young colleague speakers to share their personal job search experience and correct financial management concepts. The exchange and interaction helped the 30 students at the event to “get the best of both worlds of people and money” and created a closer connection between the award-winning students and the Yuanta family. Educational resources are an important capital for turning life around. Yuanta insists on investing in education in a long-term and sustainable way. The Yuanta Scholarship for Outstanding Underprivileged Talent provides a high amount of scholarship of NT$200,000 per person to help outstanding underprivileged        students to focus on their studies without worry. According to the statistics of the Yuanta Foundation, there were 226 student recipients over the four years, with business and law students accounting for the majority. At this stage, 44 students have secured employment. It is touching to note that students who have been aided participated a total of 71 times in volunteer activities of the Yuanta Foundation after school or during holidays. The chief executive officer of the Yuanta Foundation, Robert Yang, said that he is pleased to see students giving back to the society through practical actions. Building a warmer world and creating a cycle of good deeds is what the scholarship is all about. Yuanta not only provides scholarships, but also cares about the students’ growth at different stages of their studies and careers. Yuanta FHC has developed steadily as a model company in the financial industry and welcomes students to join Yuanta Group after graduation. The chief strategy officer of Yuanta FHC, Hsuan Min Kuo, expressed that Yuanta FHC often uses job rotations to train and nurture all-round thinking among colleagues, encouraging students to try to take stock of the potential risks of every decision and create the right perceptions. Students can develop professional skills and obtain professional licenses during the school years, while at the same time building up an international outlook and understanding of the political and economic situations to prepare during the warm-up period before entering the workplace. Students as a result will be able to show their explosive power after entering the workplace and become ready to fight. Sophia Chang, chief human resources officer of Yuanta FHC, also shared her experience on the topic of “Career Power” and encouraged students to be brave to try and explore their interests. To Chang, the combination of theory and practical experience is definitely helpful for future career planning, and it is very important to maintain self-confidence. Chang continued to share without reserve that independent thinking, teamwork, and problem solving skills are the most important attributes that companies look for in candidates when interviewing. Cross-field talent integration is the current recruitment trend in the financial industry. Such as Yuanta’s management associates (MA), there are now colleagues in the fields of physics and electrical engineering. Only by combining work with passion can we maintain our growth momentum. After entering the workplace, smart financial planning for retirement is also a major focus of the exchange meeting. One of the financial management speakers at the exchange meeting who graduated from National Taiwan University’s Graduate Institute of Finance and now works at Yuanta Securities, opened his speech with the motto “Don’t let the environment affect your choices,” encouraging students to obey the rules in both academics and financial management. In addition, another financial management speaker who joined the group through the MA system and is currently working at Yuanta Securities, shared with students how to manage small capital that can be started from now. One can make good use of fixed amounts. No matter when the market goes up or down, one does not have to worry about choosing the right time to enter the market but use the long-term average method to reduce costs. The lazy man investment method also aroused heated discussions among students.   The Yuanta Scholarship for Outstanding Underprivileged Talent is an educational scholarship program comparable to the President’s Award, and this year will enter its fifth year. Yuanta FHC and the Yuanta Foundation are committed to creating a cycle of good deeds in the social and financial environment. This warmth is like a lamp in the dark night, guiding the way for more students in need.
