Overview
Mission
The organization's mission is to serve those who are in need of care and healing, and to reach out to veterans and their families, prisoners in rehabilitation, those who have suffered a traumatic loss through natural disaster or disease, those who have life threatening illness and their familes, and school children in need of tools to give them the strength and courage to stay on track and live healthy, fulfilled lives.
What it reported doing in 2016
The Foundation for Radiance provides grants to Nuevo Amanecer Mujer Integral, a group based in east Los Angeles and founded to bring healing and rehabilitation to latina women. The group's programs provide spiritual, emotional, and educational guidance to women from abused backgrounds, including sexual trafficking, in order to provide them a chance to lead successful lives. The Foundation evaluates proposals to bring speakers and other programs to the group and provides grants for those that the Foundation selects to support.
