KIDS for PEACE

Kids For Peace is a delightful group of children working together to create a culture of peace both locally and globally.

CLICK HERE to VISIT the NEW KIDS for PEACE WEBSITE!

SAVE THE DATE: 2007 Walk for Peace in Balboa Park -- Saturday, September 22.

We learn about other cultures.
We learn about lifestyles, languages and traditions of people around the world. We identify common bonds and we celebrate diversity.

We reach out to the children we learn about.
We send Peace-Packs to children around the world. Kids For Peace "signature" service project :  Peace-Packs"Peace-Packs are hand-painted knapsacks filled with school supplies, toiletries, a toy and a personal note of friendship. All Peace-Packs are hand delivered to the receiving children. This is our primary service project.

We practice being peace-makers.
We have monthly meetings where we play cooperative games, role-play positive communication, learn to seek peaceful solutions to conflicts, read peace-filled books, perform monthly Peace Challenges, and have FUN!!!

We are politically active.
We support the bill to establish a U.S. Cabinet-level Department of Peace. (Check out The Peace Alliance or AFDOP for more information.) We write and speak to our elected officials. We learn that we have a voice and it is our right and responsibility to use it in a positive and affirming way.

We are involved in our community.
We participate in food and clothing drives, beach clean-ups, senior center visits, Veteran's Day celebrations, and other local events.

We create peace through the arts.
We use our creativity as we paint pictures, write books, make peace-flags, sing songs, and use our imaginations in expressing our peaceful nature.

We walk for peace.
We co-sponsor San Diego's annual Walk For Peace to celebrate the United Nation's International Day of Peace. Hundreds of people come together for inspiration and celebration during this day of marching and music.
