From Finance to Philanthropy: A Journey to Affordable Housing in Taipei
September 9, 2025 - 12:52
Timothy Wang, once at the helm of Fidelity Taiwan, made a life-altering decision when his mother fell ill. Leaving behind a successful career in finance, he shifted his focus to a cause close to his heart—helping young people find affordable housing in Taipei. This transition was not just a career change; it was a personal mission driven by his own experiences and challenges.
Recognizing the growing issue of housing affordability for the youth in the city, Wang founded a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing this pressing problem. Through innovative programs and community outreach, the organization aims to provide resources and support for young individuals struggling to secure stable and affordable living conditions.
Wang’s journey reflects a broader societal challenge where many young people face financial barriers in finding suitable housing. His commitment to creating change has inspired others in the community to join the fight for affordable housing, making a significant impact on the lives of many in Taipei.
