A Deep Bond with Feng Chia: Distinguished Alumnus Wen‑Ching Ma Donates Another NTD 50 Million, Bringing Total Contributions to NTD 200 Million in Support of “Education for the Common Good”

Distinguished Alumnus Dr. Wen‑Ching Ma Renews His Commitment, Bringing Total Contributions to NTD 200 Million

Dr. Wen‑Ching Ma, Chairman of Lima Corporation and a Distinguished Alumnus (5th cohort) of Feng Chia University, recently announced another major donation during the 50th Anniversary Gala of the Lima Group. In a gesture of gratitude and giving back, Dr. Ma pledged additional support to both his hometown alma mater Yongping High School and his university alma mater, Feng Chia University.

In response to Feng Chia University’s “Education for the Common Good” fundraising initiative, Dr. Ma has made an additional donation of NTD 50 million, bringing his total contributions to NTD 200 million. This profound act of generosity not only reflects the deep‑rooted Feng Chia spirit of gratitude and giving back, but also sets a moving example of alumni support for the University’s educational mission.

“Education for the Common Good”: Investing in the Future of Learning

The “Education for the Common Good” initiative represents the largest‑scale and most far‑reaching fundraising campaign since Feng Chia University’s founding.

Under the “Common Good” pillar, donations are dedicated to supporting the construction of Virtuosi Hall, which serves as a critical cornerstone for the University’s next phase of educational vision. Under the “Education Advancement” pillar, funds are invested in a wide range of academic and educational initiatives, including student scholarships and financial aid, academic activities, library resources, and laboratory and facility upgrades, ensuring that faculty and students continue to benefit from the highest‑quality learning environment.

A Legacy Beyond Giving: Passing on Values and Vision

Dr. Ma’s generosity is more than a financial contribution—it is a transmission of values. Much like Wen‑Ching Boulevard, which connects the main campus with Virtuosi Hall and embodies the philosophy of “culture as the carrier of values, integrity as the foundation of character,” Dr. Ma leads by example, offering students a powerful model of character and responsibility.

Feng Chia University will honor this trust by continuously enhancing its teaching environment and advancing academic research, ensuring that every Feng Chia student can stand on the foundation laid by those before them and discover an even better version of themselves.
