The purpose of the Foundation is to be an important source and support for students, as well as the community for culture development and advancement of science education. The Foundation distributes its funds to local financially disadvantaged minorities, and sponsors fellowship programs for the talented students at colleges and universities. A range of education support programs continue to thrive and grow since its inception. The Foundation also garners the company's employee as volunteers to participate in community support activities and social services.
We believe that education is the seed of the sustainability and long-term development of our society. The Foundation is committed to creating innovative programs that improve learning, push boundaries and contribute to the community. |
Higher Education

Support for the disadvantaged
In coordination with the "Angel Lighting Project" organized by the Ministry of Education, Novatek Education Foundation provides assistance for students from underprivileged families by offering services such as after-school courses and dinner. With the after-school care programs as well as loving companionship, children may aimlessly wander around no more. Instead, they are provided with a stable, loving, and nurturing environment for learning and growth.

Promote reading in rural areas
Novatek Education Foundation launched a "Reading Promotion" program to assist rural and remote elementary schools in Yunlin and Hualien Counties through donating quality reading materials as well as organizing a variety of activities covering creative reading, field trips, and well-designed games of reading competition. By means of the help of story-telling moms, book clubs, and arrangements of authors' school visits, we aim to cultivate students' interests in reading and furthermore enhance their capacities of reading comprehension.

Sports promotion
Since 2007, Novatek has been a sponsor of the archery team of Fuli Junior High School. Every year, the foundation sponsors 15 to 20 team members who are middle school, undergraduate or graduate students. The sponsored items include consumable parts, facilities, equipment, expenditures for domestic/international competitions, scholarship, etc. The Fuli Archery Team players have become shining stars repeatedly breaking the records in many international sports events. Even more surprisingly, the team won the Bronze Medal in the Women's Archery Team Competition in 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, Brazil, the Women's Individual Gold Medal in the 2016 Turkey World Archery Competition, and the Women's Team Silver Medal & Women's Individual Silver Medal in the 2017 Summer Universiade in Taipei. All this has immensely glorified our country, and as their major sponsor, we proudly and elatedly share their honor. Furthermore, Novatek Education Foundation has been a sponsor of the Weightlifting Team of National Erh-lin Industrial and Commercial Vocational High School since 2017. The sponsorship program provides funds for training facilities, equipment, consumable parts, nutritional supplements, etc., and expects to develop more and more talented athletes who would strive to earn the honor for our country.
