Community Involvement
We are proud of our efforts in giving back to the community. As members of the community that we cherish, the Group takes responsibility of seeing to its well-being seriously. Throughout 2014, the Group’s companies and employees worked hand-in-hand with their local communities in a variety of initiatives that range from job creation to educating the next generation. Below are some examples of community activities that the Group was involved in during the year.

Community
Our employees across the Group serve their communities in a number of ways. Some of these initiatives are highlighted below:

Arts and Culture
In 2014, the Group participated in a number of charitable activities in the arts and cultural arena, as highlighted by the following initiatives:

Sports
A healthy lifestyle is important to our employees and the well-being of those in our communities. Around the Group, some of our group companies may participate in sporting events or encourage local communities to improve their overall health. Some examples of our involvements are listed below:

Disaster Relief
The impact of natural disasters and accidents are not only confined to its victims but also to their communities. As active participants in the well-being of their local communities, HWL Group companies are quick to respond to such disasters. For example, in Taiwan, TOM Group’s Sharp Point Publishing organised charity auctions on signed edition of light novels to raise funds for the victims of 2014 Kaohsiung gas explosions.
