The Chrest Foundation is a private foundation based in Irving, Texas in the United States. The Foundation was established by Jeff Jensen and Lou Anne King Jensen in 1999 to share with others some of the financial resources they had been fortunate enough to receive through health insurance, telecommunications, and other family related business investments. The name “Chrest” was chosen as the name of the Foundation due to its general meaning of goodwill. The Foundation works on the principle of goodwill and friendship in its relations with the international community.
