Chin Ying Foundation concentrates its giving exclusively on health care, providing sizable gifts to hospitals and hospital-sponsored clinical programs in the New York area. Its funding emphasizes in-home acute care (hospital-at-home models) and general operating/urgent needs for hospital foundations, with repeat support to NYU Langone programs and regional hospital foundations.
Chin Ying Foundation Inc’s recent grantmaking is defined by hospital-at-home care and hospital emergency support. The largest gift on file is a $302,430 grant to NYU Langone Hospitals for in-home care for people who need hospital-level services but are stable enough to be monitored at home. A second major grant, $250,058 to St Francis Hospital & Heart Center, went to Saint Francis Hospital Foundation’s President’s Fund for urgent hospital needs. Those two awards show the foundation’s core pattern: it backs medical programs that extend care outside the traditional inpatient setting and provides flexible support for hospital systems facing immediate needs. That pattern continued in 2024 with a $197,570 grant to NYU Langone Hospitals -home Hospital Program for the same in-home care model. The foundation also supports hospital-based clinical and community programs in the New York area, including gifts tied to heart center support and hospital foundation operating needs. Across the recent record, its work is concentrated, medically focused, and centered on institutions serving New York patients.
Health care dominates the foundation’s recent portfolio, but the support takes several distinct forms. In home-based acute care, Chin Ying Foundation Inc gave $302,430 to NYU Langone Hospitals and $197,570 to NYU Langone Hospitals -home Hospital Program for in-home monitoring of patients who need hospital-level services. For hospital operations and urgent needs, it awarded $250,058 to St Francis Hospital & Heart Center through Saint Francis Hospital Foundation’s President’s Fund. It also supported cardiovascular services with the same institution in a separate grant tied to heart center support. Beyond hospital systems, the foundation made smaller community grants for education and enrichment, including $26,105 to Syosset High School for forensics, Science Olympiad, and multicultural activities, and $50,059 to United Way Long Island for the D.R.E.A.M.S scholarship for senior high students admitted to university.
The typical grant size sits at $1,000 at the 25th percentile, $2,000 at the median, and $17,052 at the 75th percentile. The recent record mixes a few very large hospital grants with many smaller community awards, including recurring support across multiple years for some recipients. NYU Langone Hospitals appears in both 2024 and 2025, as does Long Island Youth for Future and Carnegie Hall, while The Syosset Scholarship Fund Inc appears in 2023 and 2024. The foundation funds individuals and uses grantmaking rather than program-related investments.

Concentrated, large gifts to a small number of health institutions — repeat funding to the same organizations (NYU Langone) rather than many small grantees; focused geographically on New York-area hospitals.
Notable grantees: NYU Langone Hospitals, NYU Langone Home Hospital Program, St. Francis Hospital & Heart Center (Saint Francis Hospital Foundation)
Chin Ying Foundation Inc gives entirely within the United States, and every recent grant went to New York recipients. New York City-area institutions appear frequently, including New York, NY and Roslyn, NY, while Syosset recipients account for several smaller awards. Other New York locations include Deer Park, Bohemia, East Hampton, and Philadelphia, NY. The foundation’s giving is local in scope, with 100% of grants recorded to recipients in its HQ state.
Its recent grants center on health care, especially in-home acute care and hospital support. The largest awards go to NYU Langone Hospitals for hospital-at-home care and to St Francis Hospital & Heart Center for urgent hospital needs.
The grant-size profile is mixed: the 25th percentile is $1,000, the median is $2,000, and the 75th percentile is $17,052. That distribution sits alongside a few much larger hospital grants above $200,000.
