Our Mission
To inspire happiness and purpose through the practice of virtues. Our Belief
We believe that every person is born with the potential for kindness, compassion, and love. Within each of us exist the seeds of virtues, which grow when they are cultivated. How we Inspire
We use the 5 strategies of The Virtues Project™ which empower parents and teachers to raise children of kindness and compassion, individuals to develop their character strengths, and communities to cultivate unity and cooperation. The Virtues Project™ is a global, grassroots initiative whose purpose is “to inspire people of all cultures to remember who we really are and to live by our highest values.” |
