Rising with Taiwan, After Every Fall

Why We Exist

When disaster strikes, survival is only the beginning. At YongLin Foundation, we believe true support begins when the headlines fade—when communities must rebuild not just homes, but hope. From devastating earthquakes to catastrophic floods and tragic explosions, we stand with Taiwan in moments of heartbreak and recovery, offering immediate aid and long-term support to help people rise again, stronger than before.

How We Lead

We respond swiftly, strategically, and with heart. Our disaster relief approach is grounded in three principles:

• Act Fast: We mobilize quickly to deliver immediate financial assistance and critical supplies to affected communities.

• Stay Committed: Recovery doesn’t happen overnight. We provide sustained support—from rebuilding infrastructure to restoring livelihoods.

• Rebuild with Purpose: We go beyond repair by investing in long-term solutions that empower survivors to rebuild their lives with dignity and resilience.

• 2008–2009: Support for Typhoons Sinlaku, Kalmaegi, Phoenix, and the devastating Typhoon Morakot, including $6.1 million USD for the 88 Flood

• 2014–2016: Relief for the Kaohsiung Gas Explosion, Formosa Fun Coast Dust Explosion, and $3.05 million USD for the Southern Taiwan Earthquake

• 2018–2024: Continued support for the Hualien Earthquakes, Nanfang’ao Bridge collapse, and the Pingtung Factory Explosion—totaling over $4.7 million USD in this period alone

Rebuilding Lives After Typhoon Morakot

After Typhoon Morakot wiped out Xiaolin Village in 2009, we didn’t just donate—we rebuilt. The YongLin Kaohsiung Forest Organic Agriculture Park was created to offer survivors not only jobs, but a renewed sense of purpose. What began as recovery became regeneration, helping families turn tragedy into a fresh start.
