The President’s Report
T
he year 2011 marked the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Tan Yan Kee Foundation,
Inc. The past quarter of a century saw the Foundation vigorously pursuing advocacies in education, health, and social welfare.
Highlighted by the establishment of the
Tan Yan Kee Elementary School (with the apt acronym of TYKES), the Foundation built the school on one of the peaks of Sta. Fe, Nueva Vizcaya serving children of school age who otherwise go through extreme difficulties to even finish the primary years. Built in partnership with private corporations and the public sector, it runs on solar power, is equipped with personal computers that will eventually have
3
internet access, and has a modest library.
TYKFI also launched a commemorative book
that provides reflections on the experiences of the past 25 years as well as a perspective of the evolving role of social responsibility in corporations.
Education still took the biggest share
among the advocacies with the U.E.-Tan Yan Kee Scholarship, Adopt-A-School, Storybook Drive, and teacher and student training giving much-needed resources to boost chances at a better future for the young. From 1998 to present, students awarded scholarships under the U.E.-Tan Yan Kee Scholarship Program totalled more or less to 4,000 students including 47 faculty-scholars. 244 schools benefitted from Adopt-A-School Program as well as Storybook Drive. Under the Foundation for Upgrading the Standard of Education, 727 teachers received training. 111 teachers who joined Project Citizen in 2011 underwent the course on citizenship education.

when the Tan Yan Kee Elementary School (TYKES) was inaugurated, in partnership with public and private institutions.
TYKES addresses the needs of children who live on and
around one of the mountain peaks of Barangay Balete in Sta. Fe, Nueva Vizcaya. Given economic and topographical difficulties, many children are unable to go to school or finish the elementary years. When the Foundation built the school with public and private sector partnerships, it gave not just a measure of hope but a clear view of a brighter future.
As of June, TYKES opened its doors to more than a
hundred enrolees. Equipped fully with a solar power system, a small library, and computers which will eventually provide internet access the school has encouraged parents and the young to pursue education with passion and commitment.

Monthly Medical Forum, a wide array of interesting topics were discussed. Now on its 20th year, the forum held at the Century Park Hotel, draws a regular audience interested in medical issues, illnesses, and cures discussed by ABI medical scholars whose subspecialties were earned in recognized medical facilities abroad.
A Medical and Dental Mission was also conducted
during the year in time for the town fiesta of Sta. Fe, Nueva Vizcaya. Majority of those who were given medical and dental care were members of the indigenous people belonging to the Kalanguya Tribe of Sta. Fe, Nueva Vizcaya. Pupils in particular and the community in general of Barangay Buyasyas of Sta. Fe also benefited from the Dental Mission. The mission was in partnership with the University of the East College of Dentistry.

he Small Water Impounding Project (SWIP) saw the ongoing construction of Camangaan small water impounding located in Barangay Camangaan, San Juan, Ilocos Sur. It covers an estimated area of about 20 hectares for irrigation. The effects of irrigation will be directly felt by about 35 farming families who plant tobacco and rice.
SWIP has provided a steady supply of irrigation water to rice and tobacco farmers, who otherwise
will not be able to plant and harvest without water supply, resulting to a loss of livelihood.
