The Foundation aims to empower young people in as many schools as possible, activate them to utilize their talent potential, introduce them to cultural diversity in a positive way and offer a positive alternative in a time of so much diversity and division. .

Adolescents and young people are in a difficult phase. In a world with a diversity of people and possibilities, they are looking for themselves and their possibilities. While some are given opportunities, others need more courage to discover their strength within themselves.

To bring this diversity together, insight is needed: while one person could have more understanding for the other, the other needs the realization that he or she is good just the way he/she is because he or she has not been able to develop enough self-esteem.

Both target groups need an example, an incentive to get the best out of themselves and not fall into drug use, vandalism or sit at home as an unemployed young person.
Bruce Cerew, founder and ambassador of the Ray of Light foundation, and also author of the books “War Child” and “De Lange Weg” is committed with heart and soul to encouraging young people and giving them insight into their possibilities here in the Netherlands. .
