Nonprofit Overview

Causes: International, International Cultural Exchange, International Development, International Exchange, International Relief

Mission: The Marshall Legacy Institute, a Virginia-based, 501c(3) international humanitarian organization that was formed in 1997 to extend the vision of Nobel Peace Laureate George C. Marshall by alleviating suffering and promoting hope, growth and stability in war-torn countries. Therefore, MLI’s primary mission is to establish practical, affordable and sustainable indigenous programs to help severely mine-affected countries rid their land of the horrific scourge of landmines. This includes the development and implementation of the K-9 Demining Corps (K9DC), which provides Mine Detection Dogs (MDDs) to accelerate the pace of landmine clearance operations; the Survivors’ Assistance program, which helps those who have been injured by landmines; and the Children Against Mines Program (CHAMPS), which involves American youth in a meaningful service-learning project to help other children around the world.
