Philanthropy
Two commitments held for the long term: the health of the ocean, and the independence of people as they age.
Surfrider Foundation, Miami Chapter
Justin Lowe serves as a Board Member of the Miami Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation, the non-profit dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the world's ocean, waves and beaches. The chapter's work is local and practical: water quality testing, beach access, plastic reduction and coastal resilience in a city that lives at sea level.
Meet the team →Fit For Life Foundation
Justin is an Advisor to the Fit For Life Foundation, founded by the Lowe family, which supports healthy ageing and independent mobility in ageing societies worldwide. Its premise is simple: mobility kept is independence kept, and the interventions that preserve it are cheap compared with what replaces them.

Fit for Life:
Dare to Dream
In 2024 the foundation produced Dare to Dream, a 57-minute documentary following Jack Lowe and a multigenerational group of amateur cyclists across 407 kilometres of the Tour de France’s most demanding alpine passes, with specialists from Stanford University, the Swiss Olympic Medical Center, the University of California and the World Health Organization on what an active life does to the way we age.
Why these
Long horizons,
in giving as in investing
Both commitments reward patience rather than announcement. A coastline protected and a decade of independent movement are results that accumulate quietly, over years, and are noticed mostly in their absence.
It is the same standard applied at Gardiner Investments: take a position, take a seat, and stay long enough to be accountable for the outcome.
