[Edited extract from public address]
The Parliament wants to be your partner in tackling these critical issues. We know that solving these problems will require hard work and a new mindset. We also know it will require us to work together as a global community, to communicate across borders, identities, ethnicities, and importantly, across religious groups.
We know you want to find people who share your commitment to creating a more peaceful world, and we want to help connect you to other people of all faiths and traditions who are working toward a more peaceful, just, and sustainable world. We want to be the partner that propels these conversations into action.
Perhaps you attended a Parliament and learned of multiple organizations doing work that you want to support.
Or, you listened to some inspirational speakers that sparked an idea for a project that will fill a need on a personal, local, or regional scale.
Maybe, you had a conversation that inspired you to change the way you’re living your own life.
Whatever experience you’ve had with the Parliament, we want to continue fostering these life-changing experiences, and world-changing ideas. I think we can all agree, that the world needs more of those.
But the Parliament doesn’t exist without change-makers like you. It is our network of dedicated individuals and organizations that make the Parliament possible.
In order to keep our work going year-round, we need the support of our network of individuals of faith and conscience. A donation to the Parliament supports not only the organization, but a range of critical issues. We have active programs that exist year-round, rather than just on convening years.
These programs include:
To support this important ongoing work, during the month of May we are launching our #ShareYourPoWR fundraiser. We rely on your generosity and support to do continue our work. Donations of any amount are appreciated, no matter how large or small.

Donate & Share Our Fundraising Campaign to Help Us Address the Critical Issues Facing Our World
The world is fractured. Every day we face new challenges as a society. The last decade has seen a rise in sectarian violence, hatred and discrimination, violence against women, and a rapidly warming planet that holds a profoundly different future for our children than it did for our grandparents. It can be overwhelming to think about all of the critical issues that need to be addressed all over the world. It can be paralyzing. You want to help, but with issues so large, it can be tough to decide where to begin, or where to focus your efforts.The Parliament wants to be your partner in tackling these critical issues. We know that solving these problems will require hard work and a new mindset. We also know it will require us to work together as a global community, to communicate across borders, identities, ethnicities, and importantly, across religious groups.

These programs include:
- A Climate Commitments WebHub - We are serious when we say that we want to connect you to a range of change-makers that are passionate about the same issues that you are! Our Climate Commitments WebHub (launching soon) will provide a resource for you to search Interfaith Climate Action groups who have made varying commitments to fighting Climate Change.
- Celebration of World Interfaith Harmony Week - Each year, the first week of February is internationally recognized as World Interfaith Harmony Week. We want to be your resource for hosting, attending, or participating in World Interfaith Harmony Week events around the world! Not only do we provide you with tips on hosting your own events, but we also want to share how your organization (no matter how big or small) is celebrating Interfaith Harmony!
- A Weekly Interfaith Newsletter and Dynamic Website - We have multiple partners who we feature in our weekly newsletter to keep you up-to-date on what is happening in the interfaith world from all over the globe! We have podcasts, news updates, and blogs from our partners so that you can keep up with the good news.
