The NALITH CODE for Philanthropy originated in 1964 within Nalith Education, Inc. by founders ‘Uncle Jack’ Jacob Tucker (1908-1993), Harold Tucker (1929-1985), and Jeffrey ‘VeganMan’ Tucker (1949- .) The acronym (NA-ture L-ife T-ruth H-ealth aka N-L-T-H) came to represent a hybrid of vJudaism-Theosophy-Vegism- and Earth-centric science derived from John Robbins’ EarthSave vLegacy.
The Jacob Tucker Trust (‘JT Trust’) endowments by eccentric millionaire and Florida organic farmer, Jacob Tucker, followed the early death of his brother Meyer, a kosher butcher. Meyer’s premature death by cancer was ostensibly due to excessive meat consumption. In the early 1980’s JT Trust provided $500,000 to ISKON, $250,000 to Miami Dade Community College Environmental Center, and incorporated various precursors of a Tucker Family Foundation in Florida and California, with familial beneficiaries Jean, Jeffrey, Michael and Stephen and exemplar George Eisman, PhD (Director, MDCC Environment Center and author of The Most Noble Diet.)
The NALITH CODE was the precursor of Nalith, Inc. Tucker Family Foundation, endowed with a corpus of $6.5M by JT Trust, commencing 501(c)3 grantor operations in 1985. Nalith, Inc. supported scores of ethical vegan grassroots entities and thought leaders, including: American Vegan Society, Dr. Michael Klaper, EarthSave International, Howard ‘Mad Cowboy’ Lyman , Prof. Richard Schwartz, T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies, North American Vegetarian Society et. al. Nalith Directors mandated sub-agencies including The Vegetarian and Vegan Association (VAVA,) Coalition for Cancer Prevention Through Plant-Based Eating, EarthSave – Florida chapter, Save The Earth Ecocenter, Inc. (STEEI) et. al. It can be said that American veganism was seeded by JT Trust, Alex Hershaft and a handful of vegan philanthropists, including Poor Philanthropists Dr. George Eisman’s VAVA and Jeff ‘VeganMan’ Tucker’s Vegtastic Philanthropy Circle.
In his capacities as Director, Vice-President, Consultant (Broker Resource Corp. and VeganMan Enterprises, Inc.), and Grantees (EarthSave and STEEI), Jeffrey appended 7-E (Ethical-Eat-Educate-Entertain-Experience-Empower-Evolve) and 3-H (Humane-Holistic-Hygienic) vSynergies to The NALITH Code. Following his whistle-blower Review and Recommendations Report to the board of directors in 2017, Nalith foundation managers severed ties with Jeffrey, EarthSave, Save The Earth Ecocenter, Inc. and Broker Resource Corp. aka VeganMan Enterprises, Inc.
Jeffrey promotes The NALITH Code in six domains: earthsave.co, earthsavemiami.org, help-haiti.co, veganville.tv, vegtastic.com, vstore-vclass.co and vMission123 derivatives, including: Vegtastic Philanthropy Circle vFunds, vMission123, $100M Help-Haiti Masterplan, $2.5Bn SEDA Grand South Design 2030, YAMO- Lawrence ‘Ahimsa’ Huff, Ukupacha Earth Literacy Center, Sisterhood Mujer Mariposa, Healthy Haiti Club Int’l., Haiti Natural Hygiene Institute, Haiti Natural Hospital, et. al.
Jeffrey equates vMission123 with Tikun Olam and vJudaism (Neo Kashruth and Vegism in Gan Eden.)
