ILLUMI-NATION GLOBAL IS UP AND RUNNING!

A lot has been happening at Illumi-Nation Global. We've been expanding our board of directors and begun fundraising for The Phoenix Initiative to bring sustainable, affordable electricity to Lebanon. In these challenging times for good governance and environmental stewardship, we are focused on our civic responsibility. We are following the call to civic action articulated by Gibran Khalil Gibran, the Lebanese Arab poet, journalist and artist. He wrote in a 1925 essay: “Are you a politician asking what your country can do for you or a zealous one asking what you can do for your country. If you are the first, then you are a parasite; if the second, then you are an oasis in a desert.” President John F. Kennedy invoked this sense of civic responsibility at his inaugural address on January 20, 1961. According to the U.S. National Archives: "The climax of the speech and its most memorable phrase – 'Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country' – was honed down from a thought about sacrifice that Kennedy had long held in his mind and had expressed in various ways in campaign speeches." We welcome you to our website and hope for your participation in our efforts and that you can benefit from a tax deductible donation!
