"The pivot of perfection is charity"~ Padre Pio
About Us
The Luck Foundation is 100% volunteer driven. Our vision of the Luck Foundation is of friends and family working together, strengthening relationships, having adventures and fabulous shared experiences, making new friends while making a positive change in the world.
The Luck Foundation’s function is to help anyone motivated to make a positive difference in our world. We help people that have good ideas but perhaps do not have the time, money or knowledge to set up a proper charity through which their idea could actually come to fruition.
Essentially, people within The Luck Foundation pool their talents and support each other in various charitable endeavors. Some of us at the Foundation have expertise in marketing and fundraising, some are photographers, carpenters, electricians, plumbers, roofers, travel agents – you name it and we are connected to someone that knows how to do it. Simply put, the Luck Foundation is about a group of people offering whatever talent or skill we have to charitable activities anywhere in the world.
The Luck Foundation is the framework through which your idea to help someone is actualized - minimizing bureaucracy and providing a group of labourers and a network of people that want to participate in your efforts.
As an added bonus for those of us that started The Luck Foundation - we get to honor our Grandparents – Cyril and Maureen Luck. They have been one of the biggest blessings in our lives and it is through them, because of the choices they made and the faith they instilled in their children and grandchildren that this Foundation came to be. It was through our relationship with them that we learned that all of humanity is connected – that charity starts at home but makes a real impact on the rest of the world.
