Taoyuan City has engaged in various community welfare and social support initiatives. In August 2026, the Taoyuan City Temple Groups Charity Foundation hosted a charity baseball game for disadvantaged children and families of impoverished veterans. During the event, Mayor Chang Shan-cheng noted the role of local temples as a “social support system” capable of providing aid during disasters and community welfare.

In September 2026, the Taoyuan City Government Social Affairs Bureau organized a joint sports meet for the city’s Youth Service Centers. The event included parent-child competitions and basketball games intended to foster cooperation and confidence among youth. This initiative is part of a broader effort to expand the city’s Youth Service Center network, with a goal to complete the deployment of eight service centers by 2040 to provide localized support.
