Join Silicon Valley Interreligious Council (SiVIC) in Compassion Games coopetitions
to make Silicon Valley into Compassionate Silicon Valley! (
September 9 thru September 24, 2017)

SiVIC is participating in “Global Unity Games – Building Bridges” of Compassion Games: Survival of the Kindest Coopetition.  As one of our affiliate, we invite you to inspire your members to make our community a safer, kinder, more just, and better place to live!

The Compassion Games calls all people from all sectors and all parts of our world to share the vision of justice and equality, and collaborate to create a more connected, caring community.

3-D of Compassion:

·         Compassion for Others

·         Compassion for Oneself

·         Compassion for the Earth

Your community and individuals are invited to play and report their acts of compassion.

SiVIC’s Compassion Games Team Goal:

At Last year’s games, we set the goal to join the Compassionate Community campaign. On April 25, 2017, the Board of Supervisors of Santa Clara County voted unanimously to affirm the Charter for Compassion and join the Compassionate Communities Campaign.

The goal for the coming period is have several Cities in the county to affirm and adopt the Charter For Compassion. You are invited to participate in this effort by signing this petition.
