|Introduction about Social Welfare Foundation of Wisdom

Dementia is also known as ‘the disease of the century.’ Many families are suffering from the caring for PWD.
Being discriminated or even rejected by the community, PWD couldn’t live freely due to public’s lack of correct knowledge about dementia. Not only dementia is a medical and care issue, but also the one of whole society.
Aiming for this, in October 2013, a group of professionals in dementia care and Christian pastors gathered together and launched the “Wisdom Ministry Service.”
As the “Wisdom Ministry Service” entered its seventh year in 2019, deeply convinced of the rapidly increasing needs of families with dementia, we established “Social Welfare Foundation of Wisdom” in order to integrate dementia-related resources to give essential support.

 

Our mission

To help PWD and their families, giving them hope in their hard time and enhance their life quality and possessing dignity.
