The Simon K. Y. Lee Elderly Fund (“the Elderly Fund”) was set up in 2007 as a daughter fund of the Simon K. Y. Lee Foundation, with a mission to improve the well-being and quality of life of the elderly. The Elderly Fund was governed by the Board of the Foundation and overseen by an Advisory Committee whose members include (in alphabetical order):
- Dr. David DAI, JP, Vice-Chairman (External Affairs), Hong Kong Alzheimer’s Disease Association
- Dr. LAM Ching Choi, Hon., SBS, JP, Executive Member, The HKSAR Government
- Prof. Linda LAM, Professor of Department of Psychiatry, The Chinese University of Hong Kong
- Dr. Edward LEUNG, President, Hong Kong Association of Gerontology
- Timothy MA, JP, Founding Executive Director and Board Member, Senior Citizen Home Safety Association

The Elderly Fund supports pioneering projects in areas of elderly care that are in critical need yet not well funded by the Government or other funding bodies. We seek to address the problems via collaboration with the social welfare sector and the academia; and via the Foundation’s signature approach:
- Service – partnering NGOs to provide quality service for elders in the community
- Research – partnering universities to incorporate research in the service to
develop evidence-based practices and build new knowledge - Public and community education – making use of media and community
platforms to promote healthy ageing in the society
