The Lichtenberg Foundation - Purpose & Objectives

The Court of Lichtenberg and its  Protectors,  Teutonic Knights  of Charlemagne and Barbarossa, who later served under Richard The Lionheart - King Richard the Ist now have their place in History across 1,200 summers, with the Lichtenberg Foundation.

The objective behind this endeavour, was to create a Humanitarian and Philanthropic Icon,  one which would shine like a Beacon, to Illuminate and Pierce, the Darkness of Human inequality.

Modern Lichtenberg is a Principality without land, in the style of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta ‘SMOM’ in Italy. We  are confident the Lichtenberg Foundation is destined to become one of the greatest modern era thrusts of global philanthropy, the world will ever see.

Lichtenberg has been  reconstituted as a Constitutional Sovereignty, enjoying global protectorate status as a Foundation in law. Lichtenberg has full time chancery or representative offices in Switzerland, Germany, the United Kingdom and Australia. We seek people worldwide to  join our endeavours supporting us and other worthwhile Philanthropic organisations, such as the Gates Foundation, UN Foundation, Save the Children, World Vision, and give their voice in support also to the World Challenge Fund, The International Red Cross, St John Ambulance Service etal and help reverse the ravages of poverty and inequality in the world.

Lichtenberg's worthy aims and goals, began to gather momentum, following after businessman philanthropist Warren Buffet  elected to place  the incredibly vast sum of US$ 37 Billion with Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Greater then the GDP of many countries, this created  a philanthropic foundation, the richest on  Earth.  (right) Bill and Melinda Gates with Warren Buffet   >>>

Governments,  United Nations, etc cannot do it alone and we salute Mr Ted Turner for his US$ 1 billion donation to the UN and Mr and Mrs Gates of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Mr Warren Buffet for their commitment to philanthropy

They issued a call to arms and a challenge to ordinary private  people, to  help bring about a solution to  this  major problem and one  successive World Governments have failed to overcome, elimination of Third World poverty. Lichtenberg joins with them in this quest challenging others to take up this mantle. We Salute Mr Buffet, Mr and Mrs Gates and others in taking this stand, for this problem must be tackled NOW. Post 9/11 studies show, the link between poverty and infiltration by Terrorist organisations and as stated before, Lichtenberg stands against - Terrorism and all its abhorrent Hatred of Humanity,  because it is evil. 

To achieve these wonderful goals we need a world pulling together for as Kofi Annan-former United Nations Secretary General

TE' below   and  www.unfoundation.org

"The United Nations once dealt only with Governments. By now we know that peace and prosperity cannot be achieved without partnerships involving governments, international organizations, the business community and civil society.  In today's world, we depend on each other."

–Kofi Annan, UN Secretary-General

Someone must make a start in support of those who have already begun, because it needs more than just Gates Foundation and Warren Buffet, Lichtenberg Foundation or Ted Turner and others. With your help, we can make a difference with Hospitals - Orphanages -  vulnerable Children - Widows - The Sick and the needy in general.

WE can only do this if good people will help us and others like us, in our major fund raising projects. We can make a difference today by beginning with the  GOAL Give The World a Conscience'.

 'QUOTE'  - President Ronald Reagan - (1911 - 2004)
40th President of the United States of America.

" Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free ".

In the access of this Freedom however, we must never cave in to the Tyrants, the Dictators, or  Terrorists, the minimalist minority.

Anything new or resembling what might be defined by some as even radical, will always require a step of Faith.

St Paul once famously stated " FAITH is the Substance of things Hoped for, the Evidence of things Unseen " 

In our early days, it required faith to believe we could make a difference, however clearly, Faith is no longer required to ponder something which manifestly exists and has helped so many causes.

We seek people of similar persuasion, people who would help us build this Foundation, those who value Liberty and Freedom with minimal government interference and legislation.

Standing on the West Front of the Capitol Building January 21 1981, President Ronald Reagan said in his  inaugural address, when commenting on oppressive income tax and borrowing;

"Government is not the solution to our problem;
Government is the problem".

The post 9/11 world is a far cry from the years 800 or 1200, 1700 or 1800, or more recently, the 1940's 1950's, or 1960's and as we embark on this journey. Our Sovereign along with our Sovereign Grand Council of Prince Electors,  invites people of similar persuasion to make application to join with us, to help raise funds for the legitimate and worthwhile philanthropic humanitarian causes and enjoy certain unique rights with us.

We welcome also your application for an Honourary Diplomatic Post with Title, to aid in philanthropy, to support  Philanthropic  and Humanitarian causes around the world. Simply email us from the appropriate page and request an application.
