the great
compassion
A movement whose time has come.
As the world spins faster and faster towards chaos and disconnect, the way back to personal and societal wellbeing is the way of service to each other, and community.
Rwanda proved this astounding truth to the world after its terrifying 1994 genocide when 1 million people were murdered in the streets in a month of hate and carnage.
It was Rawanda's profound ritual of Umuganda that called every citizen to take part in community service on the last Saturday of every month that helped pull the country out of the darkness and back to the light of friendship and love.
Today, Rwanda is one of the most socially vibrant countries in all of Africa.
It's time for all the world to
follow their lead.
