The Chen Yet-Sen Family Foundation (CYSFF) is a Hong Kong-administered charitable institution established in 2003 by the Chen family, with a dual focus on childhood literacy and vision correction - two fields central to the educational development of people throughout their lives. CYSFF works closely with a variety of non-profit organizations to help them implement "innovative" and "cost effective" programs.

The Chen Yet-Sen Family Foundation is predominantly a grant-making institution, which backs long-term projects.
