Ecological Monitoring of the Erren River Wetlands in Tainan
[Donation of Equipment for Ecological Research and Monitoring]
The Taiwan Wetland Conservation Alliance has been dedicated to advocating for the establishment of the “National Important Wetlands” system and played a pivotal role in the enactment of the “Wetland Conservation Act.” Additionally, the alliance has worked tirelessly to restore the Erren River in Tainan.
To promote biodiversity conservation in Taiwan, Promate Group has partnered with the Taiwan Wetland Conservation Alliance to launch conservation efforts for the Erren River wetlands in Tainan. This wetland serves not only as a critical habitat for migratory birds but also as a sanctuary for rare and endangered species in the region.
Thanks to Promate Group’s donation, the Taiwan Wetland Conservation Alliance has organized a series of environmental education programs to raise public awareness about the importance of wetlands. Concurrently, expert teams are conducting ecological surveys and monitoring to document changes in flora and fauna populations, providing scientific data to inform conservation strategies.
This initiative exemplifies corporate social responsibility while fostering public engagement in wetland conservation. Together, we aim to safeguard Taiwan’s invaluable natural resources.
Promate Group sponsored NT$137,000 worth of equipment for various conservation efforts led by the Taiwan Wetland Conservation Alliance.
Charity Performance
【Spreading the Seeds of Love Through Music】
Flutist Kuo Jung-An, returning to Taiwan for the first time after studying abroad, will hold a solo charity concert on a midsummer night. Let us come together to enjoy the beautiful performance while sowing hope for Taiwanese children and providing better care for the elderly. All proceeds from this concert will be donated to the “One Grain at a Time Social Welfare Foundation” and the “Foundation for the Welfare of Orphans.” The Promate Group is proud to join this endeavor, using music to warm this act of love.
Meals for the homeless
【They are homeless individuals; they are also human beings】
The members of National Taiwan University arrived at Taipei Main Station carrying 100 warm bamboo leaf-wrapped rice dumplings provided by the Promate Group. They distributed them one by one to homeless individuals and listened to their stories from the streets. We passed on both warmth and supplies, hoping they could have a satisfying meal.
Since 2023, the Promate Group has collaborated with the Homeless Service Society, a student organization founded by National Taiwan University, to jointly care for the homeless, acknowledge poverty, and see the corners of society. Together, we extend our warm and friendly hands, making this world a better place.
Blood Donation
【In 2023, the PMT Group successfully achieved its goal for the public welfare blood donation campaign.】
The National Blood Bank experienced a severe blood shortage due to the disruption caused by the arrival of summer vacations and typhoons. In an effort to alleviate the summer blood shortage, the PMT Group initiated the “Passionate Blood Donation” campaign. Through this campaign, they hope to encourage the public to join in blood donation to save lives. The event successfully collected a total of 65 bags (16,250cc) of passionate blood.
Care for Remote Villages and Schools
PMT, recognizing the challenges faced by children in remote villages, distant schools, and islands due to various family factors, such as lack of supervision and care during after-school hours and school breaks, impacting their personality development and causing family issues. In line with the spirit of two Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), “No Poverty” and “Quality Education,” PMT is committed to assisting various needs, improving educational facilities, and enhancing the learning environment for these children in remote areas.
With a focus on “No Poverty” and “Quality Education,” Fongyi aims to provide sufficient resources through after-school care or summer/winter camps. The goal is to build confidence, instill positive values, and foster healthy growth through love and care, allowing parents to work with peace of mind and break free from poverty. Simultaneously, Fongyi enriches the library resources for island students, expanding their knowledge and bringing the joy of reading to remote corners of the islands.
The hope is that through quality education, the inner world of these children can be enriched, preparing them to cope with the impact of economic, social, and environmental challenges in the future.

Moving Pad
【Donate Fire and Rescue Equipment】
“The ‘Rapid Patient Transfer Mat’ is the most commonly used rescue equipment for military, police, ambulance, and firefighting personnel. Currently, the transfer mats used by firefighting and rescue personnel are accessories on ambulances. These mats are prone to tearing, and the seams at the sides are insecure, making it unsafe for quick or long-distance patient transfers. This affects rescue time and efficiency.
After careful improvement by the inventor of the transfer mat, Mr. Song Mingzhe, the material, stability, safety, and ease of use for transferring patients have been enhanced. This modification ensures a faster and smoother golden rescue process. PMT took the initiative in the first phase of donation by providing these improved transfer mats to the Taipei City Fire Department’s Second and Third Divisions.”
Nini's Little Secret
In the recent wave of the ‘Me Too’ movement in Taiwan, many victims have experienced sexual harassment or abuse during their childhood, often without awareness or the courage to seek help. Unfortunately, many families and educational institutions have not yet adequately addressed this issue.
The Slow Island Theater organizes the ‘Nini’s Little Secret Workshop’ to empower children in safeguarding themselves. Through games and puppetry performances, the workshop helps young children understand their physical boundaries and emotions. It aims to instill the idea that ‘my body belongs to me, my feelings matter, and it’s okay to say no if something feels uncomfortable.’ The goal is to establish concepts of gender equality from an early age.
PMT is actively committed to promoting the concept of children’s bodily autonomy
