About Nathan Yip Foundation

Founded in 2002, the Nathan Yip Foundation is a Denver-based 501(c)(3) public charity that supports K-12 rural education. The organization got its start building schools and supporting students and teachers in rural communities throughout China. After exploring grantmaking in other parts of the world, the Nathan Yip Foundation refocused its mission in 2016 to support schools specifically in rural communities around Colorado. It raises funds through special events (many celebrating the founders’ Asian heritage) and invests in schools through a robust annual grants and program partnership program. The Nathan Yip Foundation was founded in 2002 by Denver residents Linda and Yip, after they tragically lost their only child, Nathan, in an automobile accident. Nathan, 19 years old, was a freshman at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania.
