Lauren’s passion for peace and justice for all of the world’s citizens was clear. We hope to help in our own way to enable and strengthen that same passion in others. This is the driving force behind our grants. We wish to provide the financial means necessary to assist those who are working to change the world for the better.
We work to alleviate the financial pressures placed on international volunteers. Let’s face it, volunteerism can be expensive. We hope to help relieve at least some of that burden, by giving qualified individuals the financial support they need to help complete their volunteer projects.
Since our beginning we have funded over 140 grant recipients to more than 35+ countries, totaling nearly $250,000.
The Lauren Moilien Johnson International Human Rights Award is a financial award intended to promote volunteer service around the world and increased awareness and understanding of global issues. Lauren’s passion was international human rights and this award seeks to support experiences that lead to a deeper commitment for solving the world’s problems caused by poverty, war, and injustice and to create life-changing opportunities as volunteers work among the poor and disenfranchised people of the world.
