“Bringing Light Where It Is Needed Most.”

Supporting Children & Orphanages

From Africa to international communities in need, our initiatives focus on restoring hope,
strengthening care, and creating safer futures for vulnerable children.

Every child deserves a future filled with hope and opportunity.

volunteers, researchers, and communities through practical action and long-term vision.

  • Distribution of school materials and furniture
  • Support for biotechnology and AI studies for universities in India and Africa
  • Volunteer-driven missions contributing hundreds of service hours
  • Oral cancer screening campaigns in the state of Kerala with Trivandrum Lions

Healing Trauma & Supporting Survivors

Professor Dr. Dana York and her team advocate for survivors of violence and trauma, including those affected by PTSD.
Their work supports a compassionate, whole-person approach to recovery.

  • Helping survivors move away from environments of danger
  • Improving immediate safety and protection from robbery, scams, and aggression
  • Encouraging moments of relief, joy, dignity, and emotional reconnection
  • Surrounding survivors with trusted people who offer sincere care and support
  • Creating meaningful activity, purpose, and stability to help rebuild a happy life

Healing is not only physical. It is emotional, social, and deeply human.

Words from Dana

Now more than ever, we need to make the right choices in times when deep-fakes and arrogance are manipulating reality. My last degree is in Education from the Academy of Distinguished Educators at New York University.

The passion for technology was ignited when Prof Agafita Lefter first placed the Laser for Photo-biomodulation in my hands 35 years ago. The United States gave me citizenship as an Alien with Extraordinary ability, EB1, based on my research with LLLT in the anti-inflammatory treatment of Bone Regeneration. Photo-biomodulation is still so new.

Definition of “ Near Infrared -HZ Light Tm”: The specific wavelength of light given with a specific frequency. In a certain amount of time, it leads to a biological reaction that leads to an anti-inflammatory effect, healing oral mucositis for cancer patients. Heart muscle post-infarct, and any other inflammatory disease, replacing NSAIDs, Opioids, and may replace surgical intervention as a treatment at a distance. For that reason, we must create technology to bring this most useful sunlight within the reach of everybody.

EMLA started in 1983 initially as the European Medical Laser Association. EMLA was cloned in 2017 into the EM L AI NC 501©3 that stands for:

The American Academy of ART, SCIENCE, LETTERS & THE HUMANITARIAN MISSION.

... those are all the passions that are moving my heart. I was a curious A+ student with extensive access to education and culture induced by my beloved dad, late Professor Paul Vieru. I got the gift for being an artist.
Science, Art, and charitable giving have always gone well together in history.

Specifically for me, the protection of Victims of violence became most important when I was awarded by the “ Fond de Garantie “ of Victims of Violence and Terrorism In France, 2019, as a survivor. So, as very competent in the subject, based on my very own experience, I am letting you know that the most efficient method for Healing from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder with restitution and integrum is in the immediate bust of happiness.

The AI is made for the child victims of gender based violence in Agape Orphanage from Tanzania. It will facilitate access to education, culture & medical care in a place where there is none. Education is most important.

This conference is organised with the true financial and scientific effort of all the speakers and their universities. We were able to create, for the first time, this meeting of minds, and also give grants to worthy speakers and curious students

I took the inspiration from the great “ Laser Florence International Conference “ created by Professor Leonardo Longo and Patricia Longo for the past 28 years, by the International Academy of Lasers in Medicine and Surgery, a most beautiful scientific and generous event, where I discovered the Lions Mission in 2000. In 2023, the New York Agape Foundation Lions Club District 20R2, zone 7, for the Victims of Violence was created. It is great that we can have a Lions Gala to accompany our conference
Speakers and Delegates from 27 countries are present. I invited the civil society to participate, to be able to give the speakers and delegates who come from far a beautiful welcome to New York.
Let there be light for the benefit of science & humanity
