Founded by Society of Entrepreneurs and Ecology (SEE) in 2008, SEE Foundation was established with the mission of facilitating a collective participatory platform for entrepreneurs, environmental civil society organizations and the public to engage in ecological protection and sustainable development.

Founded on June 5th, 2004, SEE is a ground-breaking civil society organization aiming to protect the environment. It was the first environmental protection NGO in China with a membership comprised mainly of entrepreneurs who are dedicated to practicing corporate social responsibility.

At the end of 2014, SEE Foundation became a public fundraising foundation. Based on promoting industrial development, SEE Foundation works on four main areas, namely desertification control, climate change and business sustainability, ecosystem conservation and nature education, and marine protection.

SEE has won such honors as National Exemplary Social Organization from Ministry of Civil Affairs, Beijing Social Organization Demonstration Base, China-Europe Green Award for the Ecological Transition, the title of 5A Level organization in China Social Organization Evaluation Grade and A level organization in Beijing Social Organization Evaluation Grade. SEE is also one of the foundations with the highest level of transparency in China. It got full marks of the Foundation Transparency Index (FTI) launched by China Foundation Center, and its project expenditure ranked the highest among all the Beijing foundations that got full marks.

Currently, SEE Foundation has launched brand projects such as 100 Million Suosuo, Groundwater Conservation, Free Flying Wings, Blue Defenders, Green Supply Chains, Green Starters, Growing Up Together, Noah's Ark, Save the Smile of the Yangtze River, Conserving the Sanjiangyuan Region and Marine Conservation.
