Gives Me Hope
http://www.givesmehope.comGives Me Hope is where people share with the world their most hopeful, uplifting moments – one paragraph stories of amazing friends, true love, and random acts of kindness. It’s Chicken Soup for the Soul – the 21st Century, Twitter-style version.
Gives Me Hope was launched in June 2009 in response to the popular site, FMyLife.com (FML). On FML, people share stories explaining how their day was completely ruined. We love FML, but it can sometimes be a downer. And we're exhausted by the negativity of society and the mainstream media. We're tired of hearing about what's wrong in this world. That's why we created Gives Me Hope.

Charter for Compassion
http://charterforcompassion.org
The Charter of Compassion is a cooperative effort to restore not only compassionate thinking but, more importantly, compassionate action to the center of religious, moral and political life. Compassion is the principled determination to put ourselves in the shoes of the other, and lies at the heart of all religious and ethical systems. One of the most urgent tasks of our generation is to build a global community where men and women of all races, nations and ideologies can live together in peace. In our globalized world, everybody has become our neighbor, and the Golden Rule has become an urgent necessity.
