Our Mission
To promote engagement among people of diverse backgrounds, to recognize and respect our differences, and to promote a more just, kind and productive society.
We will accomplish this:
- by fostering relationship-building in small settings
- by promoting the fundamental values that bind all people and
- by helping the disadvantaged and others in need.
Our Approach
We provide practical problem-solving guidance, services and support on a grassroots basis to bring people together. We identify people-to-people relationship-building opportunities among different communities, and inspire other individuals and organizations to enhance their own relationship-building efforts.
Our Inspiration
Marcia's Light® is a private family foundation named for Marcia Horowitz, who spent more than 45 years employing a highly-respectful, pragmatic, trust-building approach in public relations, crisis management and relationship development. On February 10, 2020, Marcia passed on peacefully in an atmosphere of serenity surrounded by love. Although she fought hard and handled her illness with grace and dignity, the ravages of pancreatic cancer took their toll. Marcia led a full, exciting and accomplished life -- professionally and personally. Among her wishes is to live on in happy memories, humor and inspiration, not grief and sorrow. Marcia's Light Foundation is one of her legacies.
