About us.
LIEF was created with a vision for better lives of children in a world where their environment is impacted by generations prior. Ali Safavi, our founder, is a successful business owner and before he created his second business, he made a commitment to himself to donate 10% of the profits of the sale of his company to charity. When his company sold, Ali found that there are many impactful organizations that are in need, but not visible to the global community. After doing much research and vetting, he decided to build a portfolio of the true groups in need who would benefit from charity and donations in a sustainable manner.
Ali believes in rooted and personal connections with the foundations that LIEF partners with. By connecting small organizations directly to donors, we eliminate high overhead costs of operation within our own organization, putting more funds in the pockets of the ones who need it the most.
Together, we are building a future.
Through collaborative and thoroughly vetted nonprofit organizations, we aspire to achieve the most impact per dollar of donations from our sponsors.
