Last few years, many local Taiwanese communities held the annual “Hello Taiwan” charity event and raised over $200,000 to support Breezy Point firemen whose houses burned down in Hurricane Sandy, domestic violence victims in Queens and Brooklyn, typhoon victims in the Philippines, concert fire burn victims in Taiwan, Hurricane Matthew aftermath in Haiti and last year we donated over $10,000 through Red Cross to the people who lost their home caused by Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, and last year we donated $10,000 to the “Hurricane Michael” victims and “Measles & Rubella Initiative”, a global partnership ensuring no child dies from measles. At this 2019 Easter event, Hello Taiwan partners with The Rollstone Foundation to raise funds for special needs children to find them a home in the United States. Many of these children, particularly in third-world nations, are children with special needs. Also, Hello Taiwan donated to Rainforest Foundation US in 2019 at Halloween Fundraiser, and 2020 Hello Taiwan donated Sound the Alarm Project. In 2021, Hello Taiwan raised funds to support Habitat for Humanity and Red Cross Heroes Among Us Project. In 2022, Hello Taiwan hosted Easter Fundraiser and supported the Ukraine Humanitarian Relief and 2021 December Tornado Outbreak Assistance.
