LY2NK exemplifies a commitment to transformative philanthropy by actively cultivating leadership and sustainability in underprivileged communities. I am honoured to support LY2NK's efforts, which do not simply offer a handout, but rather a hand up to those in critical need. This organization is not only making a significant impact now but is also paving the way for lasting global change.
One of the secrets to success is, “Find a hole and fill it.” LYNK has done an amazing job of doing exactly this. The ‘hole’ that LYNK has identified is that brilliant and important efforts in philanthropy do not thrive in the absence of leadership. LYNK has identified this “hole,” and their leadership training and advising means that LYNK is doing a beautiful job of filling this particular hole. In the process, LYNK is making an important contribution to humanity.
LYNK foundation is a wonderful organization that changes many lives via sustainable solutions ranging from self reliance, community resistance, poverty reduction, education and much more. I am honored to be associated with such a powerful and caring organization!
It was truly an honor to be a part of LYNK Foundation’s initiative Elevate 2 Educate Fundraising Event in 2023. The experience was not only rewarding but also inspiring. It's amazing to see how a community can come together to support such a meaningful cause. I'm grateful for the opportunity to contribute and be a part of something bigger than myself. May LYNK Foundation continue to make a positive impact in the world!
LYNK Foundation embodies the true spirit of compassion and progress. Their dedication to educating children all over the world not only transforms lives but also uplifts entire communities. Through their passion, vision and unwavering support, LYNK is shaping a brighter future for generations to come. Proud to support their noble cause. I have been participating in their yearly charity hikes since their inception and am amazed by the support received. People from all over the world come to the hike from diverse backgrounds and donate generously.
There are over 160 million orphans in the world. That is one reason my wife and I are passionate about helping families adopt children. For children not to become an orphan in the first place would be best. To do this you have to change their environment and teach skills that will change not only their life but many generations to come. This is why I support LY2NK. They are helping create an environment where communities can learn to support themselves for many lifetimes right where they are.
Every trail we hike leads to brighter futures. With each step, we’re not just exploring nature, we’re building classrooms, creating opportunities, and changing lives. Let’s make every step count!
