Jonathan Low is one of the two co-founders of aGoodCause. aGoodCause was founded in 2004 by the two Danish entrepreneurs, Jonathan Low and Mads Ellegaard.
aGoodCause began with the idea of making it possible to help a good cause for free when shopping online. The companies pay the donations, but the users get to decide where the money goes.
Prior to launching the aGoodCause website in Denmark Jonathan studied Nordic languages and literature at the University of Aarhus in Denmark. He has worked for, among others, Denmark%u2019s largest chain of bookstores, Bog & idé, as head of e-commerce. He has also helped organise a large number of cultural events and worked with fundraising in various contexts.
The vision of aGoodCause is to create a better world by letting all online consumer transactions contain a percentage that benefits causes close to the consumer%u2019s heart. This idea has from the beginning had a global perspective and aGoodCause has now launched websites and introduced our concept in Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Italy, France, the Netherlands, the UK and the US.
We are working with more than 5,000 online shops worldwide and we are currently generating funds for more than 350 charities worldwide.
