(1) College of Liberal Arts: FJCU Wenfu Chinese Language and Culture Teaching Volunteers work with Rerum Novarum Center to teach Chinese to foreign workers in Xinzhuang District and Taishan District, and to provide guidance. Wenshan Volunteers provide school work tutoring for students at Taipei Municipal Yi-Fang Elementary School.

(2) College of Foreign Languages and Literatures:
The Department of Italian Language and Culture joined hands with the Campus Ministry Center to organize service events every Saturday at nursing homes in Taishan District, where student volunteers provide guidance and companionship.

(3) FJCU Hospital:
Geared toward the general public, educational seminars on common diseases are held on a regular basis for the local community. Free health services are offered once a year; healthcare professionals and students volunteer to visit remote communities to hold lectures or health education events.
