a legacy of caring and commitment
i am grateful that in our small way, we help narrow the gap between lack of knowledge and a good education; between lack of medical treatment and access to equipment and better health services; between a decaying world and a healthier environment we can leave to the next generations.

I am particularly concerned with education, knowing that this is the first and most important tool toward improvement of individuals, families and an entire nation. Knowledge is truly powerful. I had to work through most of my school days, so I understand the difficulties of getting a formal education. This is what drives the Foundation’s scholarship and education-related programs.

My parents showed me and my siblings that the most worthy success is one that provides other people with better lives and purpose. This is what my vision for the Tan Yan Kee Foundation is all about. In our small way, we reach out to make lives better through education, health services, a better environment and other social-welfare concerns.
