Contributions to the TSMC Community
To support community services, TSMC Education and Culture Foundation provides funding and also works hand in hand with volunteers to build a better community in Hsinchu and Tainan, where nearly twenty thousand TSMC families are located, for both our employees and our neighbors. For the past five years, TSMC Education and Culture Foundation has focused on art, cultural and educational activities in Hsinchu and Tainan.

Since 2003 the Foundation has organized TSMC Hsinchu Arts Festival each year to bring both communities refined performing arts. Apart from bringing international arts and cultural activities to the local community, the festival gives local artistic talent the chance to perform as well. In combining the promotion of arts and culture with community-building, TSMC is germinating greater appreciation of the arts in nearby communities. TSMC Hsinchu Arts Festival has refined its craft and is now one of the most highly regarded major arts events in Taiwan.

Besides promotion of arts and culture, TSMC has also been involved in the care of the underprivileged in our community for many years. In 2004, we funded the establishment of the Modern Women’s Foundation help center in Hsinchu, assisting local female victims suffered from sexual attacks or family violence. We have also coordinated language training and adjustment counseling for immigrant wives. Additionally, in 2007 the Foundation sponsored the “Adolescents’ Emotional and Physical Wellbeing Program,” undertaken by the Department of Psychiatry, Hsinchu General Hospital. Experts in psychology and medicine now provide lectures on emotional management at local high schools, and professional counseling at clinics to prevent teenagers’ emotional problems.
