The One Foundation was founded by Chinese Red Cross ambassador Jet Li on April 19, 2007 as the Red Cross Society of China Jet Li One Foundation Project () which operated under the Red Cross Society of China. Li stopped his film work throughout 2008 to devote all of his time to developing the foundation. In a Newsweek article, Li cited his personal experience with the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami as a source of inspiration for starting the foundation. At the time, Li, his wife, and two of youngest daughters were vacationing in the Maldives when the tsunami struck. His youngest 1-year-old daughter and her nanny were briefly swept away before being rescued by bystanders.
