Shine A Light Award 2021

I Love This Life was founded by 16 year old Luc Swensson with the belief that all children should have the hope to dream big. Being the product of a broken home,  Luc knows first hand the struggles that kids experience.  His  mission is to help kids see a better way.  He has worked tirelessly to raise money for pediatric cancer and makes a point to visit a Children's Hospital in every city he visits.  The I Love This Life Foundation is a 501(c)3 non profit. 

The mission for I Love This Life is to show children from every walk of life that there is a way to achieve your dreams no matter your situation.   With a focus on pediatric cancer, anti-bullying and teen suicide, Luc has become an advocate for a better way of life.  In December of 2017, he launched his #musicmatters project.  The mission to bring music to underprivileged youth was received with great support.  MP3 players with a pre-recorded message and a few of Luc's favorite songs were delivered to children in and around downtown Los Angeles.  In an effort to bring kids together and build better communities, he launched #projectHOPE.  Each event consists of a number of positive messages, community role models and a large public art display.  In 2019 he launched the HOLO project.   Luc is currently travelling the country in support of his recently published journal titled 'Create Your Great'.  For speaking engagements and classroom sponsorship's please call 406.750.0642
