In the last year, the 7th anniversary of the establishment of public fund-raising association, the collected fund took 0.8% in the measure of government's welfare expense scale: the role of private sector in public welfare is increasing each year. The private sector provides in only small scale and the content of service is inadequate compared to government. However, despite of government's effort, the mass and service sector of welfare increases, and the problems initiated by the complexity and the variety of desire is unsatisfied that the involvement and help of private sector is absolutely needed to cover areas government cannot participate.

Nevertheless, among collected funds, corporation takes 67.4%, but individual fund takes only 16.8%, which shows how the individual fund is not active.
