Nicole Chow’s generous legacy
One of Nicole Chow’s most celebrated achievements is the North development – a 19-storey residential tower on Flemington Road in Melbourne – created through her company, United Asia Group. In partnership with the Leukaemia Foundation, Nicole included 15 accommodation units (Melbourne Blood Cancer Centre) which are dedicated to blood cancer patients undergoing treatment at nearby hospitals. With her keen eye for detail, she oversaw and directly contributed to the design of an entire floor of apartments, creating an environment of tranquility and comfort for patients and their families.
Nicole personally led a campaign to raise additional funds to bolster the furnishing of the accommodation units, securing support from prominent Melbourne benefactors. She also bestowed the Leukaemia Foundation with a generous monetary gift. Nicole’s devotion to philanthropy shines through her hands-on engagement and her personal contributions which have a combined value of more than $1.5 million.
“This endeavour is the culmination of my personal unwavering commitment and philanthropic vision for the Leukaemia Foundation.” – Nicole Chow The Leukaemia Foundation formally recognises Nicole Chow in the Visionaries Circle of Lifetime Donors and thanks her for her extraordinary generosity.
