Guided by its four core public welfare strategies—Learning with Joy, Living with Health, Supporting Communities, and Caring for the Elderly—TCFHC integrates Group resources and offers a wide range of financial products and services to help address social issues. Through its financial influence, the Group fulfills its corporate responsibility for sustainable development and expands its positive social impact.

In addition, TCFHC encourages employees to participate in charitable and volunteer activities to cultivate and internalize a strong sense of social citizenship. The Group has established the TCFHC Group Volunteer Service Implementation Guidelines, under which the Chairman leads volunteer initiatives and demonstrates leadership commitment, fostering a top-down culture of corporate philanthropy. Through these efforts, the spirit of "giving back to society what is taken from society" is instilled in every employee. TCB BNP Life has also implemented a volunteer leave program, complemented by a Volunteer Passport initiative, to encourage employees to actively engage in public welfare and community service activities.

While the economic and trade environment and social structure change, the fast pace of life has led to public negligence in caring for vulnerable organizations and groups. In light of this, the Group, remaining zealous, continues to take advantage of its presence throughout Taiwan while reaching out to respective counties and cities and making donations, in kind or in cash, to ensure abundant learning resources available for outlying children, teenagers and people with disabilities and to improve the quality of life of the elderly living alone.

 Convening volunteers to give back to society

Sponsoring Arts and Supporting Cultural Development

To promote the development of the cultural industry, TCB sponsored the General Association of Chinese Culture to organize events such as the "2025 WE ARE" New Year's Eve music program, the "TAIWAN PLUS" event in Osaka, Japan, the "2025 Arts and Culture Tea Party" event, the "Matsu Biennial" event, and the "2025 National Day Presidential Office Building Architectural Light Sculpture Exhibition", in order to strengthen Taiwan's connection with the world and celebrate important festivals.

The concerts invited children from low-income families, children from out-of-town areas, and children who have long participated in the "Mobile Music Classroom" to watch the performances, with a total of 146 participants in total. The concerts aimed to cultivate artistic appreciation in a high-quality musical environment and ensure that cultural education goes beyond just concepts.

TCVC donated NT$66,000 to support the fundraising project for the post-production screening of the documentary "The Day the War Ended". Based on historical footage and interview materials, the documentary presents the social landscape of postwar Taiwan, aiming to promote cultural preservation and raise public awareness of multiculturalism and public issues.

Taiwan officially became a super-aged society in 2025 structurally. With an aging population and a low birth rate, long-term care has been a topic of interest. Seniors who are incapable of taking care of themselves or people with disabilities are mostly cared for by their family members at present. As a result, family caregivers bear significant physical and mental stress. Social issues surface once it is impossible to strike a balance among work, finance, and social life. Therefore, since 2013, BNP TCB Life and TAFC have been working together to introduce various measures and activities that support and care for family caregivers.
