Xie Foundation

OVERVIEW:  The Xie Foundation’s grantmaking includes support of educational and athletic organizations.

IP TAKE: The foundation keeps a low public profile, which limits information available on its grantmaking priorities and activities.

PROFILE: Established in 2009, the Xie Foundation is steered by Fortinet co-founders Ken and Michael Xie. The foundation lacks transparency and does not maintain a public web presence, but tax filings suggest that the Xie Foundation supports educational and athletic organizations.

The Xie Foundation's grants range from $2,500 to $4,000,000. Learn more about past grantmaking in the funder’s tax records.
