Exclusive: Texas Insider Talks with Matthew Low, Chairman of LOH Foundation & Director at Asia Times Square
In a time when many across the nation feel disconnected, disheartened, or anxious about the state of our country, glimmers of hope for a better future can be found in the simple yet powerful acts of gathering together, sharing with others, and committing to live our authentic lives. These actions build the community muscle we need to create a more inclusive and cohesive society.
Asia Times Square, powered by the LOH Foundation, is proud to announce the formation of a new Cultural Ambassadors group. We believe that by sharing our cultures and reaching out to embrace the diversity around us, we can create the synergy needed to foster a more united community.
A Space for All Cultures
The vision at the ATS Plaza, is to celebrate and share the Asian diverse cultures and traditions with the community. This is open to everyone—regardless of ethnicity, age, or race. Each event aims to highlight different cultures, sharing stories and traditions that reflect the richness of the Asian communities. There is no politics involved—just people coming together to connect, understand, and appreciate each other.
This initiative aims to banish hate and answer violence with understanding and unity.
Brothers Steve and Matthew Loh established the LOH foundation with a vision to help their local Asian community in Grand Prairie, Texas. They offer scholarship programs, emergency funds, and business initiatives.
The LOH foundation also built the Asia Times Square Development, boasting as one of the largest Asian markets in the Lone Star state. At the Asian Heritage Fest 2024 at the Asia Times Square, the LOH foundation hosted the “5K Race to Replace Hate.” The marathon event invited participants to run or walk 3.1 miles to celebrate Asian Heritage Month and unite against discrimination.
