Trump in 2017 and 2018 for its volunteerism efforts throughout the country. WeLoveU also received the silver Green Apple Environment Award in the United Kingdom.

“The WeLoveU Foundation East Coast Region has been serving its neighbors for more than a decade through impactful volunteerism.

Highlights from this year include delivering 3,000 solar-powered lanterns to vocational students in Haiti through The #BrightHaiti Project and hosting its first-ever New Life Family Walkathon in Washington D.C. to kick-start the second phase of efforts in Haiti. Most recently, WeLoveU provided disaster relief assistance to residents affected by flash flooding in Little Falls, New Jersey for two consecutive weekends, and donated more than 1,600 children’s books to the Christiana Children Hospital in Wilmington, Delaware.
WeLoveU has made a firm commitment to improve the quality of life through five initiatives: Blood Drives, Disaster Relief, Social Welfare, Environmental Protection, and International Aid. Its core values revolve around promoting unity and friendship among all people of the global village—beyond nationality, race, religion, and socioeconomic status—through impactful environmental and social welfare initiatives carried out with the heart of a mother. In addition, WeLoveU believes a mother’s love is the key ingredient to inspire change and improve the lives of many throughout the global community.
