Group Homes for Special Needs Taiwanese Children

The 2026 Love and Hope Charity Banquet

Last January 18, the Taiwan Love and Hope International Charity hosted its annual Thanksgiving banquet to thank the community for its unwavering support. The event brought together key government officials—including representatives from the Social Affairs Bureau, city councilors, and legislators—alongside a network of dedicated supporters.

The gathering highlighted the charity's expanding mission. Beyond caring for children from disadvantaged or abusive backgrounds, the organization is now extending its vital services from abused teenagers to special needs adults, thereby addressing a broader range of needs within the community, including mental health support and vocational training. This banquet was a powerful reminder of the strong, collaborative network working to protect and rebuild the lives of the most vulnerable.

Kids' First Time Beach Experience During their Winter Break

The team spent 4 days in Kenting, Taiwan, soon after the winter break holiday began and during the Chinese New Year. Despite the winter weather, the sun was out, and some kids had their first beach day. All the children had a memorable, fun-filled experience, rolling and playing in the sand as the waves swept them away. There was a lot of laughter and pictures so that the children could always look back on these wonderful memories.

Last January, the Taiwan Love and Hope International Charity received the official issuance certificate allowing it to open a second group home for children with severe neurodevelopmental disorders. Currently, the organization provides 24/7 residential and caregiving services with a family-style approach to institutionalized Taiwanese children with severe neurodevelopmental disorders. In addition, the organization also runs mental health and psychosocial support services for special needs children from low-income families. More than 30 children and families benefit from the services provided by the Taiwan Love and Hope International Charity.

And so, the team has been very busy preparing the new group home, which will serve 4 more Taiwanese children with severe neurodevelopmental conditions. The Taiwan Social Affairs Bureau has set guidelines that need to be followed in ensuring the safety and comfort of the children. The team also aims to give the new home a family environment atmosphere. The walls were painted, and new beds have been installed. The organization's social worker has also been very busy understanding the background of the incoming group of children that the Taiwan Social Affairs Bureau will place with the Taiwan Love and Hope International Charity.

It is a very exciting time as more children are going to benefit from the programs and family-style approach of the Taiwan Love and Hope International Charity.
