What is the Tall Cedar Foundation™?

The Tall Cedars’ Foundation™, a 501(c)(3) charity, is sponsored by the Tall Cedars of Lebanon International™. It is managed by a Board of Directors consisting of four officers and 12 directors, all appointed by the Supreme Tall Cedar.

How Can the Tall Cedar Foundation™ Help My Child?

In 2023, the Tall Cedars’ Foundation evolved its focus to recognizing the need to support families of children with muscular dystrophy, as well as a continued partnership with non-profits engaged in research and development work to find a cure.

Using our Muscular Dystrophy Relief Fund™ (MDRF™), the Foundation provides direct support to families through grants to enhance their child’s quality of life and scholarships to attend summer camps.

Moreover, we continue to collaborate with other nonprofits that work directly with researchers seeking to develop therapeutics and ultimately discover a cure.
