Have an Idea to Change the World? Apply to win $10,000 & an Execution Budget of $150,000

This article has been sponsored by Taiwan Excellence.


Positive change, big or small, is essentially an outcome of collective effort. There may be a single hero, but they are always accompanied by the support of others who aid them in achieving the feat. Together they possess the power to create substantial impact that can transform lives, be it of an individual, a community or society.

It is this thought that inspired Taiwan Excellence to launch a global campaign called, “Taiwan Excellence: Sharing Is Caring” Philanthropic Events, on 11 August 2021.

Themed as ‘Sharing is Caring’, this campaign is a corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative launched internationally to harness the power of collective passions, expertise and technology used for social change. Through this project, they aim to gather proposals for philanthropic events centered around social issues, governance and environment protection.

Taiwan Excellence is creating this platform for social institutions, individuals and NGOs to participate and exchange enriching ideas that can potentially have mass impact.

Like many entrepreneurs and changemakers will share, every good idea faces two major challenges before it can be brought to life — funds and the right guidance to execute the idea. This initiative is taking care of both these hurdles. The winners will not only receive financial backing of USD 150,000 and prize money of USD 10,000 each, but they’ll also gain crucial guidance from social welfare professionals and professors.
