Ligia’s charity involvement began at a very young age, helping her family foundation with the distribution of humanitarian aid to the families in need in the area immediately. Today she continues to do what she is most passionate about: doing good.

I live in Gatineau with my husband and two children Anna and Luca. I hope one day my kids will look back and think I was a good mom. One of my favorite motto is " We rise by lifting others!"
