Mission Statement
Founded in 1971, No Greater Love (NGL) is the only non-political, non-profit, humanitarian organization in the United States solely dedicated to providing annual programs of remembrance, friendship and care for families who lost a loved one in service to our country or by an act of terrorism. NGL is committed to the idea that "the beginning of the end of war lies in remembrance." This commitment is reflected in bringing families together in remembrance of their loved ones who gave their last full measure of devotion and in educating Americans, especially young, of what it means to be a citizen of the greatest country in the world.
Description
NGL sponsors annual wreath-layings, remembrance tributes and monument dedications that bring together families affected by conflicts, from World War I to the Persian Gulf War, from hostages in Iran to the terrorist bombings in Saudi Arabia.
