Approaching the 50th Anniversary of the Lithuanian Foundation

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of Lithuanian Foundation, Inc. (LF). While celebrating this occasion, LF not only remembers its successful past, but also looks with open eyes to the future. When looking at the amazing accomplishments of LF, it is hard to believe that in 1962, when LF was being established, not everyone believed in the success of the ambitious plan to establish a “million-dollar fund”. There were doubts, whether Lithuanians living in the U.S. will be able to establish the biggest Lithuanian Foundation in emigration, which for so many years has been providing grants and scholarships for students of Lithuanian heritage, sponsoring cultural activities, and Lithuanian education. These achievements have not been attained without hard working and devoted people. Many of us do know the history of LF. However, during these 50 years of its growth we also witnessed the growth of new Lithuanian generations, whose activities were supported by LF. Some of these people eventually became the members of LF, and LF is still waiting for other new members to join us.
