We conduct and fund comparative research between Eastern and Western faith and religions in order to promote cross-cultural understanding of faith and belief systems. We are especially interested in research that results in practical methods that can guide believers to take action.
Why We Fund
Mr. Daofeng He, the founder and the president of Daofeng and Angela Foundation, is a researcher and author on eastern and western philosophical history. He believes that we must understand the origins and development of the competing philosophies, beliefs, and ideologies between the East and the West based on the research to truly understand the roots of conflicts and turbulence in the world today. We oppose unprincipled freedom and money worship. We believe that God’s love for humans beyond national boundaries and races is the foundation of philanthropy. We hope to promote universal values and sow the seeds of civil society by funding this field.
What We Expect
We hope to fund more researchers so that more findings could guide practitioners. We encourage more NPOs to carry out cross-cultural communication projects to promote the understanding of the universal value in the East and the West.
