Children are the future of the world. Thus, addressing their health concerns is crucial. Dedicated to sourcing new medical equipment globally and offering high-quality medical services, Sincere Healthcare actively supports the promotion of child-friendly health care. On the morning of May 26, to promote child-friendly health care, the General Manager of Sincere Healthcare led employees and their families to the Shuiyan Public Square in Sanchong District, New Taipei City. Together, they participated in the 2024 Happy Run for Child-Friendly Health Care event organized by the Raising Children Medical Foundation, which also has a vision for children’s health-care improvement. Through this initiative, Sincere Healthcare and Raising Children Medical Foundation  aim to provide the necessary assistance to sick children throughout their treatment, enabling them to maintain healthy minds and bodies and to gain good health with positive energy at the earliest opportunity.

The Raising Children Medical Foundation Achieves Favorable Results for Child-Friendly Health Care, Benefiting Sick Children, Families, and Health-care Providers

Established in 2002, the Raising Children Medical Foundation is dedicated to achieving the principle of “protecting children’s health in Taiwan.”  With >20 years of constant commitment, it has achieved significant milestones. The foundation has established 20 child-friendly spaces in hospitals across Taiwan and offered art therapy for hospitalized children to alleviate their physical and mental stress. Moreover, it has provided medical subsidies for critically ill children and has organized family outings for sick children and their families. Over the years, it has earned recognition for its dedication to improving the lives of numerous sick children and their families. Additionally, the foundation presents the Taiwan Pediatric Health-care Contribution Award  to honor health-care providers who have demonstrated exceptional dedication during medical care but who have often been overlooked.

The Happy Run for Child-Friendly Health Care event, now in its seventh year, aims to raise public awareness of this issue  . It encourages sick children and their families to engage in outdoor activities, fostering their positive outlook during the treatment process. All individuals concerned about child-friendly health care, including children, businesses, and health-care providers, also participated in the charity run as well as donated and registered for the event. The registrations fees and donations collected will be used by the foundation to subsidize the medical expenses of hospitalized children, thus safeguarding the health of future generations.
