Spreading Taiwanese love across the world —— Taiwan life warriors group sent love to Vietnam and Cambodia, adopting and caring for disabled children
 

 
Taiwanese Chou Ta-Kuan Cultural and Educational Foundation Chairman and Lawyer Guo Ying-Lan expressed that in this love-giving mission to Vietnam and Cambodia, besides adopting and caring for disabled children in Vietnam and Cambodia, the foundation also intend to encourage these children to learning and mastering a skill by donating musical instruments, encouraging them to strive for self-reliance and never give up. In addition to adopting and caring for disabled children in Vietnam and Cambodia, she also donated musical instruments to encourage disabled children in Vietnam and Cambodia to be self-reliant and self-reliant. Give up and learn a skill. Using Down syndrome angel, Hsü Yü-wei , an exemplary life warrior from Taiwan, as an example. Despite facing multiple challenges such as intellectual impairment, visual impairment, and speech impairment, he achieved a remarkable feat by obtaining street performer licenses in 19 counties and cities across Taiwan. Not only has he demonstrated self-reliance, but he has also dedicated himself to long-term charity performances both domestically and internationally, using music to give back to society with love. Down syndrome angel rightfully earned the title of "multi-challenged artist" and was honored with the 16th Fervent Global Love of Lives Award for his contributions. Another example is Chou Tian-Guan, who suffers from Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Despite being just a high school senior, he has dedicated himself to continues his brother, cancer-fighting poet Chou-Ta-Kuan's legacy by organizing the " Chou Ta-Kuan Children’s Ensemble " during weekends, winter, and summer breaks. Beyond bringing love to children with disabilities in domestic and international cancer wards—injecting laughter into the warmth of their lives—he has continuously mobilized donations of 3,085 second-hand musical instruments to remote schools in Nepal, Guatemala, and elsewhere. This allows underprivileged students worldwide to play the melody of hope again. He truly deserves the title "ADHD Warrior" and has received accolades including the Outstanding Volunteer Elite Award, selection for the Taiwan Presidential Education Award, and the Carnegie USA Best Breakthrough

Chou Shan-Guan, Executive Director of the Zhou Da Guan Cultural and Educational Foundation's International Exchange Center, , stated that Huang Xiaoxiang, founder of the Humanitarian Center for Homeland People in Vietnam, was born as an orphan and endured a childhood marked by hardship and displacement. Over more than 30 years, she has transformed herself into a compassionate entrepreneur, overcoming challenges such as breast cancer, which she fought with love and determination. She established the Humanitarian Center for Homeland People, saved over 5,000 disabled orphans in Vietnam. Huang Xiaoxiang has been honored with Vietnam's National President's Labor Medal, the title "Inspiration of Vietnam," and holds the Guinness World Record for being the mother of the most children. She is rightly hailed as Vietnam's "Mother of Orphans."Among 2,459 nominees worldwide for the Fervent Global Love of Lives medal, she stood out and was awarded the "2016 19th Fervent Global Love of Lives medal" by the Chou Ta-Guan Cultural and Educational Foundation in Taiwan. From September 3rd to 9th, Huang Xiaoxiang and other recipients of the Fervent Global Love of Lives medal among 13 countries, including Jadav Payeng, , The on of Forest , will gather to participate in a series of charitable events.
