  • Over the years, Everlight has not only promoted character education internally but also spread the seeds of character education to schools, helping children establish a lifelong foundation, develop correct values, be optimistic and proactive, diligent and studious, responsible, and willing to help others.
  • Everlight has been organizing children’s character camps for many years, assisting children in laying the foundation for their lives and establishing correct values.
  • Despite the interruption of children’s character camps due to the pandemic from 2020 to 2022, the Company continued to sponsor the “Morning Life Education Activities” at Shulin Elementary School and Caota Elementary School in Guanyin District.  Volunteers taught children the definitions of various characters through storytelling, helping them understand and apply these qualities in practice to become outstanding future generations with excellent character.
