Love in the Mirror

Love in the Mirror is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that supports volunteering to produce disadvantaged youth and families with basic necessities, including food, clothing and learning materials.

AbOUT

Love in the Mirror was founded by a 6-year-old boy, JOnAS Corona, who wanted to give back to kids that were less fortunate than himself by giving them things he thought every kid should have. The idea eventually grew into a non-profit that attempts to meet the needs of disadvantaged youth and their families, while also giving kids the ability to develop leadership skills and self-esteem. The organization has provided 7,000 disadvantaged individuals with necessities like clothes, toiletries, learning materials, toys and a chance to be happy so they can look in the mirror and love what they see.

Mission

"Love in the Mirror is a charitable organization that strives to inspire young people to MAKE A DIFFERENCE through their volunteer commitment of providing disadvantaged youth and their families with basic necessities such as food, clothing and learning materials."
