The Love Like Lija Foundation
Funding youth-led projects demonstrating care, kindness and compassion
Lija was a quiet force who demonstrated compassion and caring in all that she did. While this foundation gives us an opportunity to honor Lija’s memory in a lasting way, our major intent is to carry on the compassion and caring started by Lija. Remember — demonstrating care and compassion to others does not have to cost a lot of money. And if you’re thinking you’re too young, Lija’s life shows us that you don’t have to wait until you’re older to make a difference in this world. You can find simple and easy ways to start today!
Great idea for Scouts, School Groups, Community Centers or Youth Groups needing help funding their care projects
