The Mangrove Foundation is a subsidiary of the Atlantic Philanthropies, a private foundation created in 1982 by Irish-American businessman Chuck Feeney. The Atlantic Philanthropies focuses its giving on health, social, and politically left-of-center public policy causes in Australia, Bermuda, Ireland, South Africa, the United States, and Vietnam.
A philanthropic arm of the Mangrove Capital Partners, the Mangrove Foundation focuses heavily on environmentalist issues and left-of-center women’s interests around the world. It was established in 2000.
Background
The Mangrove Foundation, also known as Foundation de Luxembourg, is an initiative of Mangrove Capital Partners. Mangrove Capital Partners is based in Luxembourg. 1
The Mangrove Foundation aims to establish Mangrove Capital Partners as a major corporate giver having a visible impact through donations. 2
The Mangrove Foundation was founded in 2000. 3 The group financially supports other organizations to push environmentalist goals. 4
The organization had $1 assets and $0 revenue in its 2017 budget year, according to its 990 form, though it had more than $12 million in expenses. 5
The Mangrove Foundation says it seeks to promote social welfare throughout the world through grants to nonprofit organizations that assist the disadvantaged children and youth. 6
Leadership
Hugo Mahieu is the CEO of the Mangrove Foundation, a position he has held since December 2017. He previously worked as the managing director for the foundation, and also held executive positions at HBC Group, BoD, and the Barefoot Startup Studio. 7
Paul Helminger is the president of the Mangrove Foundation. Helminger is a member of the Luxembourg parliament for the liberal Democratic Party. He is also a former Mayor of the City of Luxembourg. 8
Agenda
The foundation commits to being on the ground one week per month to be in close contact with NGOs and beneficiaries of the donations “in building a virtuous ecosystem around the environmental dimension.” 9 Its environmentalist focuses include land degradation, resource depletion, “energy misuse,” water accessibility, and climate change. 10
The Mangrove Foundation contends empowering women financially and socially correlates with delayed fertility and would thus reduce the population size to help the environment. Among the specific targets of the women empowerment program is an isolated area of South Laos. The group is helping women in the area to build a sustainable coffee production venture. 11
The organization’s projects include sustainable water in Cuba and sustainable energy in Togo where it aims to build a national network of small shops to support women empowerment. 12
The Mangrove Foundation also says it is organizing “solidarity groups” in the Congo to promote economic empowerment of vulnerable women, irrigation in Mali through construction of dams to retain rain water and replanting trees, and on women empowerment in India through providing seed capital for business startups. The organization further is providing community medics in Bangladesh and training women to be health care workers there, reforestation in Senegal, enhancing fish production in the Philippines, and a girls’ orphanage in Gambia. 13
In the United States, the Mangrove Foundation supports Tree Media’s production of the “Green World Rising” series narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio warning of the dangers of climate change. 14
