In 2024, for the purpose of undertaking charity activities all over the world, Frankie Lowe created the Frankie Lowe Foundation in Geneva, with regional offices in London and Shanghai. The charity activities of the Frankie Lowe Foundation are focused in the following sectors: Creative Thinking, Sustainability in Life, Support for Individuals with Special Needs (Love Shines), Interfaith Harmony.
Despite that the Frankie Lowe Foundation was recently established, Frankie Lowe’s story with charity could be traced back to 2003. In 2003, Frankie Lowe initiated Frankie Lowe Investment Fund for investment as well as management of investment assets. The total investment amount of Frankie Lowe Investment Fund exceeds RMB 20 million. The existing investment projects include Handu Culture Center, WGT.
The profits/proceeds of Frankie Lowe Investment Fund were used to undertake charity activities. In the future, the profits/proceeds of Frankie Lowe Investment Fund will be donated/transferred to the Frankie Lowe Foundation as necessary to achieve the foundation’s charitable goals.
Does the foundation accept donations?
The Frankie Lowe Foundation is proud of what our grantees do to improve global education and sustainable development. We welcome individuals generously offer to contribute money to the Frankie Lowe Foundation. With donations, more and more efforts would be devoted to the following sectors: Creative Thinking, Sustainability in Life, Support for Individuals with Special Needs (Love Shines), Interfaith Harmony.
Investment Fund
As of 2024, we created a two-entity structure. One entity, the Frankie Lowe Foundation, distributes money to grantees. The other, Frankie Lowe Investment Fund, manages the investments assets. This structure enables us to separate our program work from the management of our investment assets.
How the Investment Fund Works?
Frankie Lowe Investment Fund holds the investment assets, including the initial investment amount contributed by Frankie Lowe herself as well as investment from potential limited partners of Frankie Lowe Investment Fund. The investment assets are managed by the general partner of Frankie Lowe Investment Fund.
Charitable work with the private sector?
The foundation’s goal is to ensure that all people, no matter where they live, have access to high-quality and sustainable education resources. We focus on using and integrating resources to promote collaborations as well as to help solve complex, entrenched problems that affect billions of people. With integrated resources, ideas/concepts advocated by international associations (e.g. OECD, UNESCO) could be achieved/realized in practice (instead of being ideas/concepts on the paper).
Engaging private sector companies?
In the case of private sector organizations, we work with companies that have experience creating and delivering innovative products and services that can help improve education quality. When opportunities arise to involve private sector organizations that would not otherwise participate in making progress toward our charitable objectives, we seek to create incentives for them to do so—and to take action that does the most good for the most people.
