At the heart of Asia Education Foundation (AEF) lies the belief that education is key to breaking the cycle of poverty. AEF was founded in 2006 and was granted charitable status by the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department in October 2008. It was set up to provide scholarship funds to disadvantaged students to help finance their university tuition fees. For now, our efforts are focused on China, a country where many young outstanding students cannot afford to attend university.
Our aim is to improve the lives of talented and hardworking students from unprivileged backgrounds through helping them to afford a tertiary education in China. The option to attend university is often closed to outstanding students, unless they are able to afford the tuition fees. We hope our donations will allow their and their families' dreams of a university education to come true, and help alleviate the hardships suffered by these families.
AEF hopes that the opportunities given to these young adults will instill in them a desire to help others, thus extending the reach of the grant beyond the initial scholarship recipients. To this end, we request that scholarship recipients pledge that they will, upon their graduation, try their very best to donate in a similar way and enable other students with financial difficulties to further their studies by attending university.

Our mission is is to improve the education of mainstream students who are challenged by Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) by providing accurate evidence-based information, practical strategies and support to parents and professionals in education and healthcare and by improving understanding of how learning differences impact youth both emotionally and academically.
