The Entrepreneurship Team
The Edward Lowe Foundation was established by Ed and Darlene Lowe in 1985. In contrast to most U.S. foundations, which are grant-giving entities, we are an operating foundation that funds its own programs.

Entrepreneurship team
When he started at the foundation in 2000 Chris was hired specifically for the job of network administrator. Late in 2006 his job was reclassified to accommodate interests in video, graphics and photography. He has led a number of large projects and finds daily activities include a nice blend of creative and technical work. Chris is allowed to learn and experiment with new techniques to provide superior results for the foundation.
Chris has a bachelor’s degree in Russian language and literature from Purdue University, an MBA from Indiana University but insists on rooting for Notre Dame. Crazy.
