Vern Lal Global Foundation is an initiative of Children’s Global Education Fund, Inc., a California 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. This means every donation carries tax benefits in accordance with IRS regulations.

We understand how powerful it is to transform grief into hope and positive change by commemorating someone special.

  • Matching Gifts: Many employers match employee donations to 501(c)(3) organizations, increasing the value of your gift.
  • Peace of Mind: Donations are legally protected and used solely for charitable purposes.
