Compassion Games - Global Unity Games: Building Bridges Sept. 9-24

Play for Peace is excited to announce its participation in The Global Unity Games: Building Bridges.  A 16-day challenge, the Global Unity Games will unite communities around the world in acts of kindness and compassion. Beginning on September 9 and concluding on September 24 during the World Peace Weekend, join millions of people around the globe in the celebration of peace and organized community service activity. Responding to the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, individual players and teams will work together to promote freedom, positivity and peace on earth. Play for Peace clubs around the globe will host activities and sessions in support of the Global Unity Games. If you are not involved with a Play for Peace club, you can still participate in the Compassion Games! How to Play:

• Sign up! Players (both individuals and teams) can create or join service projects, or participate in any of the featured ways to play, which include: The Cities League, The World Peace Weekend and 11 Missions of Compassion.
• Share with Compassion Games! Each day, the results of the games are shared on the Compassion Report Map. This map charts the impact of participant activity around the globe.  All players and teams will receive a Mission of Compassion to complete each day of the Global Unity Games. Upon completing these activities, players should report their action via the Compassion Report Map.  These reports are posted on the Global Unity Games Scoreboard, where all participants can view the number of volunteers engaged in acts of kindness, the number of hours served, the number of people served, and the amount of money raised for local, national and global campaigns.
• Share with your network! Invite your friends and family to join you for Compassion Games activities. When you're playing, use #PFPGlobalUnity, #BuildingBridges and #CompassionUnite to share your posts and multimedia with the team!
