What One Foundation does
One Foundation (壹基金) is a Shenzhen-headquartered, privately initiated public welfare foundation founded in 2007 by Li Lianjie (Jet Li) and registered as 深圳壹基金公益基金会 with 50 million RMB registered capital. It operates 14 distinct charity programs organized around three pillars: emergency disaster relief (紧急救灾) plus the Safe Home community-resilience program, children's welfare (covering child safety education, special-needs support including autism and cerebral palsy via Ocean Heaven, clean water, safe playgrounds, and rural libraries), and rural community development (including rural revitalization covering all 160 nationally designated key assistance counties from 2021–2025). In 2025 the foundation reported RMB 5.267 billion in public welfare expenditure, helped 8.79 million beneficiaries, mobilized 290,000 volunteers, and worked with 1,100+ partner social organizations across 31 provinces.
The foundation's delivery model is a multi-stakeholder 'joint philanthropy' (联合公益) platform that integrates government, internet platforms, multinational enterprises, NGOs, and individual donors. Core partnerships include Tencent (via Tencent Gongyi, Tencent Growth Guardian, Tencent Games, Tencent Foundation, Tencent SSV), Meituan (the Rural Children's Playground 'consumption equals charity' program with 5,000+ playgrounds), Alibaba, Ant Financial/Alipay, ByteDance, Coca-Cola China (Clean Water 24 Hours emergency mechanism), DiDi, SF Express, BYD, P&G China, Walmart China, Disney China, LEGO Group, BMW China, and Xibao Catering. Technology stack includes a proprietary real-time donation tracking system built with Meituan that traces individual contributions to specific physical installations, AI computer vision for jump-rope-count scoring in Future Sports Ground competitions, VR-enabled Future Classrooms, and Aliyun-hosted donor data with SSL encryption.
Revenue is sourced from individual recurring monthly donations (月捐) and one-time giving via the foundation's own channels and authorized internet public fundraising platforms, corporate grants and sponsorships (Coca-Cola, Tencent, Meituan, ByteDance, BYD, etc.), and transaction-embedded donations from merchant programs such as Alipay's Gongyi Xiaobei and Meituan per-order giving. In 2025 the foundation received approximately 569.9 million person-occasions of donations, distributed 70,000+ Warmth Packages, built 2,009 sports facilities (averaging 5.5 per day), and provided safe drinking water to 23,000 children across 417 schools, supported 740,000+ children in the Child Safety Program, and was awarded its 14th consecutive full score on the China Foundation Transparency Index.

- Amity Foundation (爱德基金会): China-rooted non-profit delivering disaster relief, education, and community development programs across China; overlaps significantly with One Foundation on child welfare, rural schools, and emergency response.
- China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation (中国扶贫基金会): Largest nationally-operating public fundraising foundation in China; runs comparable disaster relief, child welfare, and rural development programs at materially larger scale, making it the closest operating peer to One Foundation.
- SEE Foundation (阿拉善SEE生态协会): Membership-driven Chinese environmental foundation; comparable as an independently-founded, professionally-run Chinese grantmaking body with corporate-partner-driven fundraising, though focused on environment rather than children.
- China Women's Development Foundation (中国妇女发展基金会): Nationally-operating foundation with comparable scale of programs focused on children, mothers, and rural community welfare in China; competes for similar corporate CSR budgets and public-donor mindshare.
- Narada Foundation (南都公益基金会): Independent Chinese private foundation focused on supporting grassroots NGOs and child welfare/rural development, often cited alongside One Foundation as a model of professionalized Chinese philanthropy.
- Shanghai United Foundation (上海联劝公益基金会): Mid-sized Chinese public fundraising foundation running multi-cause programs and major public fundraising events (e.g., One Day Walking for Charity); comparable operating profile in regional public fundraising and corporate partnerships.
Emerging players

- Ant Foundation / Alipay Charity (支付宝公益): Operates one of China's largest internet giving platforms, which channels donations to NGOs including One Foundation; represents the broader platform-based giving model that One Foundation partners with rather than competes against.
- UNICEF China: International child-welfare agency active in China; benchmarks One Foundation's child safety, education, and disaster-relief programs against global standards and competes for institutional donor funding.
- Tencent Charity Foundation (腾讯公益慈善基金会): Affiliated with Tencent—one of One Foundation's core strategic partners—and operates the dominant internet fundraising platform that channels donations to thousands of NGOs including One Foundation itself.
