Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) had recently launched the Taiwan Excellence Cares campaign, the first CSR and charity project across Asia by Taiwan Excellence. TAITRA has now announced the successful conclusion of Stage 1 of its Big Idea - "Connecting Love" - with 56,650 sign-ups from Taiwan, Mainland China, India, Indonesia and Vietnam. This marks another successful year of promoting Taiwan Excellence products in Asia. A total of US$45,424 will be donated to the humanitarian organization, World Vision (www.worldvision.org), across these countries to help local children in need.
Organized by the Bureau of Foreign Trade (BOFT), Taiwan Excellence Cares aims to promote Taiwan Excellence in a creative yet charitable way. Taiwan Excellence will donate as many US dollars as the number of sign-ups (up to a maximum of US$10,000 per country) to World Vision in early August. Through the "You sign up, We donate" program in Stage 1, a total of 16,854 sign-ups were achieved in Mainland China; 14,336 in India; 9,269 in Vietnam; 6,155 in Indonesia and, most surprisingly, 10,036 in Taiwan in 3 weeks. The top 20 participants from each country, who made the most number of referrals, will be announced on the official website (www.taiwanexcellencecares.com). These participants are entitled to progress to Stage 2 - "Vote for Love" - by sharing their creative charity proposals and putting them up for public voting. The final three contestants will have an opportunity to win a free trip to Taipei and a prize of US$2,000.
In an effort to maximize the charity amount in India, Taiwan Excellence organized on-ground and online promotional activities to spread word and encourage participation in the "You sign up, We donate" program. Trucks branded with Taiwan Excellence Cares messages went round the cities of Bangalore, Delhi and Mumbai. In-campus promotions were organized in some of the notable educational institutes in these cities. Online promotions were introduced, where lucky registrants could win exciting Taiwan Excellence products or get a chance to meet Malaika Arora Khan, the celebrity endorser for Taiwan Excellence in India. All these promotions received excellent response and were instrumental in raising the charity amount.
Stage 2 will officially kick off in August. During August 1-8, the top 20 participants will be able to choose any combination of Taiwan Excellence products from their local markets to propose a creative charity plan aimed at helping a charitable institute of their choice. To proceed to the next and final stage, these 20 proposals will be promoted online to get as many public votes as possible. Voting will be open from August 12-26 on the official website. The final three proposals from each country will be implemented in their local markets in September 2013.
