Love Ambassador
Started in 2004, this exciting and inspirational TLF program is designed to acknowledge the many people around the world who quietly and joyfully embody unconditional love to the very best of their ability. These are the ones we meet who present a positive and caring approach in their thoughts, words, deeds and actions no matter what the circumstance or situation. You know them by the love and acceptance you feel while in their presence. They use love, wisdom and power in all they do and inspire us to be more. Anyone may nominate themselves or another and each submission is formally reviewed for this honorary designation.
The Love Foundation - Web and Social
Maintain world wide web presence on the internet with focus on education and sharing inspiration and information related to unconditional love. We also establish local collaborative outreach programs with volunteer country coordinators around the world along with social networks.
All Nations Love
All Nations Love is designed as a heart-based social participation movement that brings people together within their culture, community, and nation while inspiring collaboration with other nations and people from around the world. It is our way of uniting heart to heart, nation to nation. TLF also sponsors the America Loves initiative as part of the global project.
Love Begins With Me - Film Project
In our ‘Love Begins With Me’ film project we want to reveal that unconditional love is alive and well in the world, that love is being shared amongst people throughout the world, and how much better the world is when people are sharing their love.
Global Love Day
We honor each May 1st as a symbolic day of unconditional love and call upon all people and all nations to gather together in the wisdom of peace and love. A celebration of our humanity.
Begun in 2004, Global Love Day is the annual universal recognition of our innate oneness through love. It is our vision to unite one and all in a celebration of love and compassion.
Our core vision is expressed in these tenets:
We are one humanity on this planet.
All life is interconnected and interdependent.
All share in the Universal bond of love.
Love begins with self acceptance and forgiveness.
With respect and compassion we embrace diversity.
Together we make a difference through love.
To date, over 875 proclamations have been issued honoring the day from governors, mayors, councils and leaders including HH Dalai Lama
