We are so grateful for your uplifting generosity and your involvement toward a peaceful society. We cannot commit to improving survivor’s lives without your support. Please join Global Survivors for Peace to give hope to the most vulnerable among us: survivors of genocides and other atrocities.
Although our people’s lives were cut short, their legacy lives on in the survivors, their stories and their commitment to live a dignified life. The fortitude of survivors is something to applaud and we must support them on their journey. We are confident in God’s providence to watch over this organization and talk to generous hearts to assist many suffering survivors. By supporting these projects, you are empowering survivors to live and commit to contributing to a lasting peace; but it is something they cannot do alone.
As global citizens, we have to ability and responsibility to bring light into the darkest hearts, to bring happiness to people who greatly wounded; it is our call from God. Let us push beyond our comfortable zone to share and lift our brothers and sisters whose lives were destroyed by genocide. Send a smile to survivors and plant seeds of peace in wounded and healing hearts.
