A Non-Profit Foundation with a Hope to Brighten Lives Around the World
At Brightening Lives Foundation, we are dedicated to helping people around the world so as to reduce poverty and injustice; to advance human achievement; to promote global health, education, peace and to promote the sustainability of the environment on which life depends.
We are determined to do what we can to brighten the lives of people around the world. We believe that all people deserve the chance to have healthy and productive lives.
SUPPORT FOR THE HOMELESS
In support of the Brightening Lives Foundation’s Mission, we have focused our activities in this very desperate pandemic time to support the homeless by funding and assisting the Multi-Service Center South homeless center which is San Francisco’s largest and most extensive homeless shelter (MSC South). Leading this program for the Brightening Lives Foundation will be our President and Director, Sung Jin Ingriselli. We are also directing funding the “Blankets for the Homeless” program. Please support us in this life saving effort by contributing to the Brightening Lives Foundation.
We focus on three major charitable areas.
These areas are: improving the environment, making it easier for the poor or handicapped to attain basic necessities, and to provide healthcare and education to people who cannot afford it.

We were inspired by the book The Life You Can Save by Peter Singer. This book taught us the moral benefits and the most effective way of donating to a charity.
