ABOUT

Donald and Lisa Pliner are always passionate about the causes that are important to them-health, arts, animals, and more. But to have more impact on our future, the Pliners have decided to focus their charitable efforts on the most vulnerable members of society: children.

Out of these efforts comes the Peace For The Children Foundation, which has been created to channel funds to deserving projects and initiatives that advance peace, care, and welfare to children in need.

MEET DONALD & LISA

The dynamic duo of Donald and Lisa Pliner have always been known for their extensive dossier of charitable efforts, from starting the Toe Box Foundation for the Miami City Ballet to involvement in the Make A Wish Foundation, The Humane Society, and the Jackson Memorial Children's Hospital. But their own foundation grew out of adopting their beautiful daughter Starr Emmanuelle from an orphanage in Kazakhstan three years ago.

CHILDREN'S PLAYGROUND IS THEIR OWN CREATION

Designed by children who will use it while funded and built by three nonprofit groups, a new playground at a southwest Houston apartment complex promises to bring a community together, and as a consequence pose a deterrent to crime.
