Compassionate block watches in Lake Forest Park
Monday, August 5, 2013
In 2012, Lake Forest Park affirmed the Charter for Compassion, a ten year program encouraging compassionate acts citywide. Many of us who live here already engage, on an individual level, in activities intended to improve the lives of others. Imagine how great our impact could be if we came together and focused our energy!
Are we a compassionate block watch circle? Of course, we are! Are we… the MOST compassionate neighborhood in Lake Forest Park? Well, in a manner of speaking, them’s fightin’ words! Let’s get together – in the spirit of fun and goodness – to show our stuff in the Compassion Games Sept. 11 – 21. We can hold a food drive, clean graffiti, help a neighbor, pick up litter – we decide. We can work together or individually. All that really matters is that we help!
How do we keep score? It’s easy. All we need to do is record our helpful acts on the Compassion Games website, during the week of Sept. 11—21. After doing any act of compassion, just access the Compassion Games website. Click on the Compassion Map in the title bar, and follow the simple instructions to submit a report. At the end of the week we’ll see which neighborhood racked up the most points.
Join in September 11- 21. Make a difference to someone else and help Lake Forest Park become the most compassionate city in the Compassion Games! That list now includes Stockholm, Sweden, and Gurgaon, India as well as New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Nashville, Seattle, Louisville, Kentucky and MORE.
