Hello Charter for Compassion family!
I am on a mission. I want to challenge each person who is reading this message to think about and then participate in one of the programs below. Better yet, bring someone along and join together. In the case of Peace by 2030, bring two others to create a supportive team. We are thrilled to invite you to dive deeper into these four transformative offerings that promise to amplify our collective impact and foster a world of compassion and harmony. Here’s how you can get involved and make a difference:
1. Peace by 2030: Become a DreamKeeper!
Imagine a world where 40 million people, just half of one percent of humanity, join forces to make global peace a reality. That’s our dream for Peace by 2030! We’re calling on you to become a DreamKeeper—someone who takes action by completing the Peace Game’s seven transformative actions and believes in the possibility of Peace on Earth by 2030.Our vision is to establish Peace on Earth Zones in 10,000 cities worldwide. By creating these zones, we’ll weave a new social fabric, making cooperation for the common good the norm. Join us in this revolutionary movement and help us reach that tipping point for shifting global consciousness. Click/Tap here to read more and join us starting September 25.

4. Harmony of Humanity: Music as a Bridge
This program is close to my heart since I’m the person delivering it. I’ve done 22 programs leading up to this series and they are all available for you to review.

Here’s what you can look forward to:
