Community Engagement

Apart from continuously creating economic value and extending sustainable development, PSMC consistently promotes charity projects to complete the Company’s sustainability goals. PSMC upholds love and care by providing assistance in the form of participation and services to communities, cultural and educational institutions and disadvantaged groups, fulfilling the responsibilities of a corporate citizen.

Community Care

Ihoyuan Organic Farm Eat Good Rice, Do Good Deeds, Gift Good Shoes
PSMC and Ihoyuan Organic Farm in Juanchiaoli collaborated to spread goodness and love by promoting the Eat Good Rice, Do Good Deeds, Gift Good Shoes charity event, where employees volunteered to purchase a subscription service of organic rice from local mothers in Juanchiaoli, and the farm donated the “grain profits” to a shoe purchase fund. The purchased shoes were then donated to Francis Nursery School, Sacred Heart Kindergarten, and Taoshan Elementary School Kindergarten in Chienshih Township, Hsinchu County.
In 2022, the employees' subscription amounted to NT$667,520, and a total of 50 pairs of shoes were donated.

Sending Love to Rural Elementary Schools and Tribes During the Holiday Season
The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the three major traditional festivals in Taiwan. In order share the festive atmosphere with students in rural areas, PSMC employees organized a visit to Chien Shih Elementary School and the Chien Shih Hou Shan Tribe in Hsinchu County on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Employees brought mooncakes, pomelos, and other seasonal delicacies, giving students an opportunity to learn about and participate in the traditional festival culture, fulfilling the Company’s mission to educate and care for rural communities.

Charities

The developmental objectives of PSMC's local operations are to co-exist and co-prosper with the local community, which prompted PSMC to establish the Public Welfare Committee. Over the years, the Company has promoted and participated in various local affairs with a focus on community building, charitable donations, and education in rural areas. It has continued to reach into rural areas, campuses, and communities to bridge the urban-rural gap with actual volunteer efforts and resource donations, support local agricultural products, implement equal opportunities for youth education, and promote sports, in the hopes of leveraging its corporate power to build a society of common prosperity and sustainable development.
