The Shui-Lai Chen Foundation

The Shui-Lai Chen Foundation was established in 1998 after the passing of our beloved grandfather and the founder of the Chen Family businesses. Our purpose in creating a foundation in his name was to continue his lifetime of selfless contribution to the improvement of the Taiwanese fishing and shipbuilding industries and the families of those involved. Each year our foundation gives scholarships to deserving university students who are studying naval architecture and marine biology. Our foundation also yearly awards superior teachers and professors in these same fields. We also sponsor all types of related activities.. Please check below for the most recent activities of the Chen Family Foundation. If you know of a deserving teacher or student who is in need of assistance in the fields of naval architecture and marine biology or have an activity in these same fields that needs funding, please contact the secretary of our foundation for consideration at: cfb6097@ms23.hinet.net
