The Jynwel Charitable Foundation was established in 2012 by members of the Low Family to continue their multi-generational legacy of philanthropy. The Foundation focuses on funding breakthrough programs that solve problems in global health, education, and conservation. It takes a long-term, collaborative approach, investing over $100 million across over 50 years in top organizations around the world, such as the National Geographic's Pristine Seas program and MD Anderson Cancer Center.

2. ABOUT JYNWEL
CHARITABLE FOUNDATION DISRUPTIVE PHILANTHROPY
OUR VISION: OUR HISTORY: OUR PHASED APPROACH
Jynwel Charitable Foundation
Limited (“Jynwel Foundation”) is
the philanthropic initiative of Jynwel
Capital, an international investment
and advisory firm. Jynwel represents
the third generation of the Low
Family business and philanthropy.
Jynwel Foundation is built on the
Low Family’s heritage & vision for
investing in society, and seeks to
fund breakthrough programs that are
working to solve the world’s toughest
problems in global health, education,
and conservation.
Low Meng Tak, the grandfather of Mr
Jho Low and Mr Szen Low, migrated
from China to Malaysia and Thailand
in the 1940’s. He started successful
businesses in alcohol distilleries and
mining, generating substantial wealth.
While a successful businessman,
Low Meng Tak taught his children
and grandchildren the importance
of giving, and fostered strong
philanthropic values within the family.
Jho Low and Szen Low established
Jynwel Foundation in 2012 to put
these values into action for the
current generation and beyond.
Jynwel Foundation institutionalizes
the Low Family’s social investments,
and builds on the multi-generational
legacy of the Low Family’s
philanthropy to think big, and invest
in the long-term to create extensive
social value over time.
DISRUPTIVE PHILANTHROPY
DIG DEEP
We tackle the biggest
issues by researching and
connecting with experts
until we discover and
understand the root cause.
COLLABORATIVE DESIGN
We convene partners
across sectors and around
the world to design the most
effective programs. We are
motivated by cross
continental approaches and
funding, especially when we
can bring the global North
and South together.
THINK VERY LONG-TERM
The world’s most complex challenges cannot be solved in three to five
years; we must make commitments spanning 15-30 years – or longer
– to drive solutions to the most pressing problems.
INVEST BIG
We invest big and look for
the greatest return on social
investment. We know our
investments are successful
when the programs we
helped design can be
brought to scale globally.
MEASURE TO GROW
We evaluate each program
every step of the way and
leverage partners who can
drive the most progress
and impact.
