The Power

of Community

Donate in Honor

of Craig

Craig, our beloved co-founder, is currently in hospice care. Many friends and supporters have asked how they can honor him during this time. One way is to send messages of love and support to [email protected] so she can get them to him when possible.

Another option is to make a gift to Play for Peace in his name. Your donation will continue Craig’s Legacy of laughter, compassion, and peace in communities worldwide.

When we UNITE, We build a stronger world.

Train Young Leaders

Every time children come together for Play for Peace, we call it a Practice Peace Session. These sessions are more than just play—they are a powerful means of fostering understanding, compassion, and peace among children from diverse backgrounds.

Your support can help us reach more children and continue to cultivate a world where compassion and peace are the norms.

Thanks to our community and donor support, over 1 million children have experienced moments of laughter, compassion, and peace.

What We Do

We train teen and adult peacebuilders to use cooperative play and community service with children to develop compassionate connections.
