In 2020, the COVID-19 brought about immeasurable impact on the global environment, and has
exerted profound influence on people's lives and the market economy. In addition to
continuously perfecting preparatory work for responding to various unpredictable situations
in the future, E.SUN protects customers' assets and provides bailout loans to companies and
individuals while also actively supporting epidemic prevention and medical care with
practical actions, thus exerting the bank's positive influence.
In order to express their gratitude to the epidemic prevention staff and support, E.SUN
employees initiated a donation activity entitled "Salute to Physicians, Nurses, and
Frontline Epidemic Prevention Workers", which was enthusiastically responded by many
employees by donating their daily earnings. They and the E.SUN Volunteer & Social Welfare
Foundation jointly donated a total of NT$15 million to the account of Ministry of Health and
Welfare Taiwan Centers for Disease Control to express their care and aid the work of
epidemic prevention personnels. During the epidemic prevention period, E.SUN extended
gratitude to the hard-working doctors and nurses on the front line for their courage in
taking responsibility and staying at their posts to protect the health of the public. E.SUN
volunteers also donated supplies and thank you cards to medical institutions, hoping to
cheer up the medical staff and replenish their energy.
With the advent of an aged society, society's demand for medical and elder care is
increasing, and the epidemic prevention process moreover requires the concerted efforts of
medical staff. In response, E.SUN has joined hands with academic institutions to cultivate
more nursing talents needed by society and enhance the energy of Taiwan's social health care
by supporting indicator nursing schools to promote assistance programs for economically
straitened and disadvantaged students. The bank also set up the "E.SUN Nursing Talent
Scholarship" to encourage students in the field of nursing to devote themselves to their
studies, and after graduation, pursue careers in clinical nursing, thereby becoming nursing
professionals with expertise and passion for service.
