2023's finale at the Charter for Compassion Award Banquet
 

The Charter for Compassion has proven that when the right combination of people come together, the world rises to its feet, tears flow, hearts swell and smiles encircle the globe. In the past, the Charter has gathered worldwide, in person and virtually, to recognize some of the most extraordinary and honorable people whose lives signify compassionate action to the 10th degree. We hear from people at the grassroots level, those working in the fields of health and scientific research, musicians who recognize their call to preserve cultural roots in addition to using their talents to educate beyond musical notes, and social justice advocates who are spurred by small victories that collectively result in equity.

This year's recipients will be announced in this space on September 1, 2024. Join us the evening of September 19 to celebrate who they and to enjoy a memorable evening of inspiration, an opportunity to meet new friends and enjoy a vegan meal, a Charter for Compassion tradition. The event will be at the Centro de Convenciones de Pabellon, the same location of the Summit and the doors open at 6:15 pm and we will begin at 6:45 pm. The cost is $75 dollars per seat. Sponsorships for tables is also available.

Please contact Lynn for future information on sponsorship.

You will receive a message immediately after your registration. The doors for the banquet will open at 7:00 PM. No need for a ticket, we will have your name on our list. You can check in at the Charter for Compassion booth during any day of the Summit to get your table assignment. Our booth will be in the central atrium of the Centro de Convenciones de Pabellon.
