本所於2019年11月22日星期五邀請華山基金會-台西天使站丁站長蒞臨本所,說明華山基金會社福宗旨,並介紹台西天使站復站計畫。丁站長透過精彩的簡報資料,與同仁分享她親身的服務經驗。台西天使站於101年設立,累計服務超過145名三失長輩,目前服務79位弱勢長輩,主要提供居家修繕、物資協助、生命教育、送餐到宅、護理服務等協助。由於經費限制,無法於台西當地駐點提供即時服務,因而有此復站計畫。預計募集150萬,目前達成19萬5千元,期盼各界踴躍捐款。

華山基金會於1999年正式成立,投入三失(失能、失依、失智)老人免費到宅服務。目前於全台設有387個社區愛心天使站,秉持「在地老化」(長者能在自己熟悉的環境終老)、「在家老化」(長者能在家庭式之住所終老)、「社區互助」(取之於社區、服務於社區)的理念,在「補不足」服務原則下,為社區老人提供優質服務。

Huashan Social Welfare Foundation and Taishi Angel Service Station Project

Miss Ding, full-time social worker and chief of Taishi Angel Service Station, came to our office to talk about Huashan Social Welfare Foundation and the plan to rebuild Taishi Station on 22 November 2019.

Established in 1999, Huashan has been devoted to social service work focused on disadvantaged senior citizens in Taiwan. The foundation has 387 stations around Taiwan, working hard to provide supplementary services to the old in need of help. By providing community-based services, Huashan hopes to help senior citizens grow old at home in the community they are familiar with.

Taishi Station was established in 2001 and has served 145 senior citizens through the years. The station is caring for 79 people by providing them home cleaning and maintenance, grocery supplies, meal delivery, basic nursing care, among others. Due to the lack of funds, social workers have no permanent presence in Taishi, a small seaside village and one of the poorest towns in Taiwan, and have to travel a long distance on a regular basis. The plan to restart Taishi Angel Service Station will greatly improve the quality and frequency of services to the local senior citizens. The foundation hopes to raise TWD 1.5 million and have received donations of TWD 195,000.
