The Loukoumi Make A Difference Foundation unites and empowers over 150,000 children in 30 countries worldwide to make a difference, through their voices, for causes they are passionate about. Join us in reading these Inspiring Stories from children and young adults across the globe, who are indeed changing the world, one good deed at a time.
Over 125 authors are represented in this book from 30 countries and over 60 cities worldwide.
This Loukoumi Good Deed movement has children making a difference for animal and homeless shelters, nursing homes, the environment, through sports and the arts, and other causes of interest to them. In their own voices, these children are changing the world, one good deed at a time. The result is that these children are also building self-esteem, improving their mental health, finding their purpose and overall happiness.
The Loukoumi Good Deed Curriculum is part of over 300 schools worldwide, through in person good deed delegations to schools around the world, and virtual programming with a Good Deed of the Month Zoom program and an International Good Deed Council where students collaborate on global good deed projects including students at schools in Greece, India, Northern Ireland and the UK, Italy, Germany, Ecuador, Tanzania, Uganda, Spain, Honduras, Puerto Rico, across the United States and Newfoundland Canada.
The Foundation also sponsors The Loukoumi Foundation Treatment Room at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, a teaching kitchen for the homeless at the Floating Hospital in New York City, after school programming at New York City Schools through the Variety Boys & Girls Club and the Greater Ridgewood Youth Council, the Make A Difference with Loukoumi Exhibit at the Westchester Children's Museum and a Never Forget Letter Mailbox outside Town Hall in Gander Newfoundland Canada for families who lost loved ones on 9–11.
