A New Charter for Compassion Sector is Off and Running
The Women and Girls sector launches on Wednesday, August 3, 7 am PDT
with a conference call to explain the "why,"how," and "what" of the work that has been done and will be forthcoming. Of course, the growth of this sector is in the hands of all who commit to it.  Start Reading for the Charter's Next Global Read The U.S motto is "E Pluribus Unam"--"out of many, one" - but you'd never know it now, says activist Mark Gerzon. The United States seems hopelessly divided. In the past, Americans could disagree without demonizing each other. But now healthy partisan debate has been replaced by brutal political brawling, where nothing but winning matters. Loyalty to party has replaced love of country. The solution, says Gerson, is to become transpartisan. This doesn't mean adopting a new set of political beliefs. "Transpartisan" is an adjective, not another "ism." You can be a transpartisan Democrat, a transpartisan Republican, or a transpartisan independent. It is about the how, not the what, a way of conducting politics and solving problems that is the opposite of the hyperpartisanship destroying our country. Join in a presentation and discussion led by Mark Gerzon, author of The Reunited States of America. This should prove to be an interesting and important discussion for those from the US and the global community. Register now for the September 17, 9 am PDT call. Welcome to New Partners and Schools

Connecting and Nurturing the Heart of the Global Compassion Movement
Did you ever wonder what a typical work day is like with the
Charter for Compassion? One thing certain is that we can say that there
is no typical day. During most days we are on the phone very early to
participate in calls which most probably originate from Europe or Asia
and then follow the clock through the US and then later in the day we
might be involved in conference calls with our Asia and Pacific
Healthcare hub in Hong Kong or with the Australian compassion campaign.
We continue work on revising the Islamophobic Guide, finding ways to
promote the Green Charter or working with partners to explore ways of
seeking funding to support our work. We are grateful for all of your
contributions and hope you continue to
donor to our work.
Please consider donating to the Charter. |
