About 5 Star Legacy Foundation

5 Star Legacy Foundation exists to alleviate the suffering of children, their families, and their communities by breaking the cycle of poverty.

Literacy for children in grades k-12

Our mission is to provide literacy help for children in the form of books and other educational products as well as providing cash donations for them. We take special interest in the needs of children without parents they can rely on, as well as the institutions that hold custodial guardianship of them. Where we have been made aware of them, these orphanages, hospitals, and other entities receive financial and other support from 5SLF.

Hope through scholarships for higher education

This includes identifying those deserving young men and women who are top performers in school but have no way to afford the next level of education and provide them with micro-loans and grants. The support they will receive from 5 Star Legacy Foundation is in the form of financial aid. Each student is accountable for their performance with regular reports on their progress.

Self-reliance through entrepreneurism

Oftentimes, trade support is an ideal solution to breaking the poverty cycle. It has been shown through the success of the Grameen Bank concept that many of the world’s most impoverished people can sustain themselves through plying trades they are somewhat familiar and have a reasonable expectation of building out a business that meets a demand for that trade. Following this model, 5 Star Legacy Foundation offers micro-loans to specific individuals who show they can take a small amount of seed capital and invest it toward infrastructure that enables them to make a living. The individuals are accountable to repay these funds on terms they work out with 5SLF.

In addition, 5SLF also offers entrepreneurship education so individuals are better able to take the initiative and create business opportunities of their own.

5 Star Legacy Foundation also supports the initiatives of other organizations philanthropic ventures where deemed of interest and worthy of 5SLF resources. One such initiative is Synergy WorldWide’s annual Winter Warmth Drive conducted on behalf of the Navajo Nation in New Mexico, USA. This project brings together food, cash, warm clothing, blankets, books and other literacy support, as well as other basic necessities to support these communities.

5 Star Legacy Foundation was founded by Mark Comer, one of Synergy WorldWide’s Double Presidential Executives.

Announcing Synergy WorldWide’s Global Facebook Page

All of the current Synergy WorldWide Facebook pages are now connected under Synergy’s new global page at.

globalfacebook

Whether you live in Asia, Europe or North America, you will be able to find the Facebook feed you’re looking for under one URL.

The global Facebook structure was designed to help international brands maintain a single fan page while localizing experiences for users around the world. Global pages have a unified Like count, but the profile image, cover photo, posts and language will differ by region.

If you live in an area that has a regional Facebook page set up, you will automatically be directed to it when navigating the Synergy Facebook URL. For example, if you live in Rome, you will automatically be directed to Italy’s Facebook page, not the global page. If you live in a region that does not have a Facebook page set up, you will be directed to the global page. The global page will only post information that is pertinent to all regions.

Want to see what’s happening in Synergy markets around the world? Go to the Synergy WorldWide Facebook page and click the icon located directly to the right of the “Share” button. Then click “Switch Region” in the dropdown menu. From there, you will be able to select the country’s Facebook page that you want to view. The country that you “save as a preference” will become the page that appears each time you visit Synergy’s Facebook page.

If you haven’t already Liked the Synergy Facebook page, do it NOW to receive live updates from Synergy leadership and to become more involved in the Synergy family.

Having this global page will allow us to bring our global fan base together. We are excited about this step forward in our social media marketing strategy as Synergy continues to expand and spread its message throughout the world.

Master Track and Field Star Trusts V3 System

Master Track and Field Star Trusts V3 System

Upon meeting 70-year-old John McDermott, you may learn that he is a Synergy Team Member and that he is of Irish descent. What you may not guess, though, is that John can probably run faster than you.

He currently holds several Ireland and United Kingdom track and field records in events ranging from the 200-meter dash to the 300-meter hurdles to the decathlon. These records were not achieved 50 years ago as you may have assumed. These records were set in the last few years. Last year, John added international medals to his growing list of accomplishments including a gold medal in the 300-meter hurdles, a silver medal in the 400-meter hurdles, and a bronze medal in the decathlon at the World Indoor Championships in Budapest.

He competes against other Master Athletes in his 70-74 age range and is among the best runners of his age group in the world. Out of all the products in the world he could use to sustain his athletic stamina John loves and relies on Synergy’s V3 System—ProArgi-9+, Mistify and Phytolife.

“For Master Athletes, health and wellness is more of an issue than it is for younger athletes. Luck and genes are of course a major factor in keeping fit and injury-free and I appreciate how lucky I am to be able to do what I do,” he said.

However, in addition to luck, it takes an extreme passion for the sport and long hours of training to maintain John’s athletic endurance at the elite level. Because of this, John trusts Synergy’s V3 System to help maximize his training efforts.

“I truly believe Synergy’s V3 products contribute significantly to my nutrition, performance levels and overall wellness. My diet and training routine is helping me beat competitors who were faster than me a few years ago,” he said.

This year, he is ready to take on the World Masters Championships in Lyon, France, where he will be competing in the decathlon, the 300-meter hurdles, and the 400-meter dash.
