Everyone wants world peace, right? Well, maybe not everyone, but most of us. We want a world where we can live in harmony with each other. One where we don’t have to watch entire populations of people suffer. We want a world where we don’t have to make crazy difficult decisions, like deciding whether to feed your family dinner instead of picking up your medical prescription.

How do we achieve such a world? We must unite under the common belief that no innocent human being deserves to suffer. We put down our defenses, our emotions, and our judgements and trade them for respectful listening, empathy and willingness to find solutions. It’s time to learn to love each other, despite our differences. Only with that love will we ever be able to create the world that our dreams are made of.

The Peace & Unity Charity Gala will take place on September 24th, 2024 from 6pm - 9pm and will aim at making progress toward creating such a world. During the event, we hope to draw attention to some of the problems our society and our world are facing. Guests will hear from speakers, have thought provoking conversations, purchase artwork and have the opportunity to bid on silent auction items. All profits from this event will be equally split and donated to the following charities.
