Charter for Compassion is a global nonprofit organization focused on promoting compassionate action worldwide by reinvigorating the principle of treating others and the planet as you would wish to be treated. It builds and sustains cultures of compassion through a network of Compassionate Cities and the Charter for Compassion Education Institute. Based in Bainbridge Island, Washington, the organization was founded in 2009 and operates as an international nonprofit. Its work targets communities and individuals across sectors, uniting them to address divisions and polarization through compassionate engagement. Recent announcements indicate plans to host a two-day virtual Compassionate Action Conference in May 2025 to convene leaders, advocates, and organizations around compassion-driven change.
