Pou Chen Group has recognized the importance of corporate social responsibility and has held many community engagement activities around the world for several years. Take Vietnam for example; by donating goods to Tien Giang Social Protection Center before 2019 lunar New Year, the elders and orphans in Social Protection Center felt warmth and happiness at heart.

Located at Tien Giang Province of Vietnam, Yue De Vietnam Company Limited is one of the companies of Yue Yuen Industrial (Holdings) Limited, which is a subsidiary of Pou Chen Corporation. Yue De has held a community service visit celebrating the lunar New Year in Vietnam on January 20, 2019. Pou Chen/Yue De has donated 46,400,000 VND (around 2,000 USD) worth of goods including 1,000 kilograms of rice, 70 cartons of instant noodles and 330 gift bags including milk powder, drinks and candies to Tien Giang Social Protection Center. In addition to distributing goods, Pou Chen volunteers also played game activities with the orphan kids. All the kids have enjoyed those games a lot as they had been looking forward to these activities for a long time. A three-year-old boy, who has received a gift from a volunteer, even reached out to the volunteer for a hug. Upon receiving the hug, a lovely smile spread on the cute little face of this boy, forming a warm and touching picture. Our volunteers understand that for disadvantaged people, they need not only the material supplies, but from the bottom of their heart, they long for love and caring, which cannot be traded off by money. Pou Chen’s employees volunteering the community service visit this time outnumbered the participants we have expected, especially for those employees who live near the Social Protection Center. They were very positive in the participation of the event and realized that elders and kids in the Center need their help and caring more than they could imagine after engaging the event. They are all very interested in having more opportunities to help others and make their community a better place.

On the day of the event, in addition to visit Social Protection Center, Pou Chen also held a regular activity of visiting some employees and their family. Colleagues went to visit Ms. Kim, an employee from the department of Stock fitting, who is regarded as an “Excellent Employee” and has worked in company for more than five years. She has earned recognitions by her outstanding working performance and interaction with others. In the home visit activity, the Company presented a gift to Ms. Kim in recognition of her great performance, and also wished her and her family good health and a happy New Year. With the warmth and care expressed by the company and colleagues, Ms. Kim felt very much encouraged and motivated to work harder and contribute her efforts to the better development of the company.
