Dear Volunteers and Supporters of LIG Global Foundation,
As we begin 2025, it is with a mix of emotions that the officers and founders of LIG Global Foundation write this letter to you all. After more than a decade since four friends began this journey, the time has come for LIG Global Foundation to wind down and cease operations. We will no longer operate as the LIG Global Foundation and will transition into the informal LIG Global Volunteer Network to promote volunteerism among our network of humanitarian partners.
We want to express our deepest gratitude and appreciation for your unwavering dedication, passion, and support. Your tireless efforts, selfless contributions, and commitment to service have touched so many and inspired the next generation to spread kindness and a helping hand...
In the spirit of true friendship, we are requesting that you join us in one last mission – a journey of reflection. We need your help compiling the aggregated story of LIG as told by its members. Could you please share any stories that you can share about your experience(s) on one or more of our trips, events, or perhaps a story about one of the volunteers that makes you smile, laugh, or cry? We would love to bring these memories together as a remembrance we can all share...
You can share these stories through this link:
Personally, we know we have been changed for the better... It is with our sincerest gratitude, we wish you all the best in your future endeavors. May your journey be filled with love, joy, and fulfillment!
With heartfelt gratitude and warmest regards,
