A compassionate city is an uncomfortable city! A city that is uncomfortable when anyone is homeless or hungry. Uncomfortable, if every child isn’t loved and given rich opportunities to grow and thrive. Uncomfortable, when as a community we don’t treat our neighbors as we would wish to be treated.

~ Karen Armstrong, Founder of the global movement, The Charter for Compassion

Charter Initiatives are the communities at work, laying the groundwork to identify issues on which they wish to work on and are in dialogue with their local government representatives.

Charter Initiatives can be initiated by one person, organization or group that get involved with the Charter for Compassion, apply the toolbox strategies, and would like their Community to adopt the Charter too.

Over 121 City governments have already signed and Affirmed the Charter for Compassion as a Compassionate City. In some cases, these cities have adopted the Charter for Compassion as it is written, in other cities, the Charter has been changed to include working relationships of citizens with the governing entity.

In the Community Application below, please tell us about yourself and your organization. We'll use the information to send you a newsletter, create a Compassionate City or Initiative webpage for you, invite you to events, and provide opportunities for you to connect with like-minded others also working to bring the Charter for Compassion to life.

Please invite your family, friends and community to Affirm the Charter as individuals and join us too!
