With energy, enthusiasm, and insight, Vivian Glyck has had dynamic success helping health-based organizations, authors, speakers, and publishers develop and reach their marketing goals. Whether that involves expanding VISIBILITY, increasing SALES, developing an extremely PROFITABLE online presence, completing a successful product launch, or networking with the right entities at the right time, Vivian has an uncanny ability to target the right plan, the right market, and the right message. The outcome: smart, well-integrated marketing activities that work, which translates into visible, tangible results.

Leveraging everything that she had learned while promoting the stories and visions of clients like Deepak Chopra, Dean Ornish, and Tony Robbins, in 2006, Vivian founded Just Like My Child Foundation following the birth of her son, Zak.

Through the experience of a mother’s love for her child, Vivian woke up to realize the value of every human life. After learning about the horrific numbers of children dying from malaria and being orphaned by the AIDS epidemic in Africa, Vivian was moved to make a difference.

For well over a decade, Vivian has orchestrated a multi-continent movement through the non-profit she founded. This fundraising, storytelling, programmatic initiative has literally saved tens of thousands of lives in Uganda, East Africa and is now poised to move into India and the US.

She is now a recognized thought leader in global issues facing the health, education, and economic leadership of vulnerable adolescent girls and women. Just Like My Child Foundation has documented success in increasing acceptance of human rights in developing communities and shifting harmful cultural practices that impede girls from continuing their education. The organization is focused on the Girl Power Project® and is committed to empowering vulnerable adolescent girls to stay in school, avoid forced child marriage, pregnancy, and gender-based violence. Through a Clinton Global Initiative Commitment to Action and in support of Michelle Obama’s Let Girls Learn initiative, JLMC has, directly and indirectly, reached 20,000 girls in central Uganda. Her recent TED talk, “How to Transform the World, One Girl at a Time” has been warmly received in the international development community www.JustLikeMyChild.org/TED.

The publication of Vivian’s first book, 12 Lessons on Life I Learned From My Garden: Spiritual Guidance from the Vegetable Patch, Rodale, 1997, involved a seven-city speaking/media tour which taught her even more about how the publishing industry works. Her most recent book How to Change the World While You Work: The Ultimate Guide For Using Philanthropy to Build Your Business has helped countless entrepreneurs fulfill their dreams to “do good while doing well.” You can download here.
