The document discusses social entrepreneurship and non-profit organizations in Taiwan. It provides an overview of Taiwan's 300 major foundations, including their endowments, types, geography, income sources, and expenditures. It then discusses a proposed social entrepreneurship idea to create an online platform connecting donors directly to beneficiaries and projects, allowing donors more autonomy in choosing where to donate. The platform could potentially expand by creating its own projects, seeking corporate sponsorships, and linking volunteers to non-profits. A team would be needed for project sourcing, web development, and marketing.
