Community events in Taiwan promote intergenerational bonding and child development

Various community initiatives in Taiwan are focusing on social support for both the elderly and young children. In Yunlin, the Huashan Foundation collaborated with Douliu Erhuang Palace Kindergarten for a Halloween themed event to celebrate Cane Day. The activity involved seniors interacting with 150 children to foster intergenerational connection and raise awareness for supporting vulnerable elderly citizens through electronic invoice donations.

In Hsinchu County, the Mental Health Foundation held its tenth annual Baby Sports Meet in Hukou Township. The event utilized playful competitions designed around developmental milestones to help parents monitor their children's growth during the critical period before age three. The foundation provides ongoing developmental screening and parenting consultations across several townships in Hsinchu to support early childhood development.
