Nvidia’s AI boom created a $9 billion foundation led by Lori Huang. Here’s where the money has gone.
The Jen-Hsun and Lori Huang Foundation's fate remains unclear in the wake of Jensen Huang's recent scandals.
The Huang family oversees a $9 billion family foundation, led by Lori Huang, the president. Jensen Huang, her husband, previously served as CFO and secretary but was recently ousted from his role at Nvidia. The foundation, established in 2007, started with $13,000 in assets and no donations, but it has since grown exponentially to a multibillion-dollar fund, reflecting Nvidia's success.
After Jensen Huang's extramarital affair and possible foreign influence scandal, the foundation's future remains uncertain. Throughout its existence, the foundation has primarily focused on education, public health, and STEM initiatives in the US, as well as local community organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area. In recent years, it has also supported mental health causes, including donations to Crisis Text Line and Mental Health Innovations.
Despite its size, the foundation maintains a low profile with no publicly available website or employee list.
