Part 1: SYL Foundation’s work and Impact
第1部分:「盧勝彥佈施基金會」執行的工作與產生的效應。
  Since its creation ten years ago, SYL Foundation has distributed $2,024,621 million dollars in annual grants for Health and Education programs and provided $796,665 in international disaster relief aid and scholarships. Together with an additional $212,194 in grants to address increasing threats to immigrant and refugee communities, we’ve distributed a total of $3,033,480 in furtherance of our mission to combine compassion and philanthropy with strategic grantmaking to advance quality health and education for all.
  「盧勝彥佈施基金會」創立至今十年來捐出超過2百萬美元用於健康照護和教育年度計畫,也捐出將近80萬美元,幫助國際緊急賑災以及蓮花獎學金;加上協助移民和難民的種種項目,我們總共捐出了總金額超過3百萬美元,以推展我們的關懷與慈善事業任務,並採用補助金策略,來提升眾人的健康與教育品質。
  Locally and internationally, we have partnered with 61 different nonprofit organizations. Over the last 10 years, our grants helped over 100,000 people, young and old, receive medical and dental care, and connected over 25,000 students to innovative education programs.
  基金會和本地以及國際的61個非營利機構合作。在這十年當中,我們幫助了超過10萬位各年齡層貧困的人,得到醫療和牙科健康照顧,並且幫助了超過2萬5千位貧困的學生,獲取創新的教育補助方案。
  In response to the increasing challenges for immigrants and refugees since 2017, SYL Foundation launched an Emergent Needs Fund as well as a Rapid Response Fund to help address matters such as family separation and detention, deportation defense, and basic health care access. We will continue to support programs that protect and empower immigrants and refugees in this perilous time.
  從2017年起為因應移民和難民逐漸遭遇到的困難,盧勝彥佈施基金會發起了「緊急需求基金」及「快速回應基金」以解決「家庭拆散與家人被拘留」、「遣返辯護」與「提供基本醫療」,我們也將在這一段險惡的時刻,持續支持保護及替移民和難民爭取權利的相關計畫案。
《Education Grants教育補助金》
  “Education is the light that guides one’s civilization,” says our Founder. Research shows that education is a strong predictor of social and economic achievement. Education is also linked to intergenerational educational and economic mobility, better health, and greater civic engagement. From the start, SYL Foundation’s mission has focused on the importance of early education, high school graduation, and access to post-secondary education opportunities. The Foundation prioritizes funding to organizations serving marginalized communities and people of color, especially immigrants and refugees.
  師尊說:「教育是生命的文明之燈。」研究指出,教育水準是社會經濟地位與成就極為顯著的預測因素,同時也和「世代教育的影響」、「世代經濟的影響」、「優質健康」以及「公民參與」相互關聯。盧勝彥佈施基金會從一開始的使命就是「關注早期教育」、「高中畢業」與「獲得高等教育的機會」,而基金會贊助的機構,以服務弱勢族群、有色人種,尤其是移民和難民為優先。
