URI Stories of Impact

Cooperation Circles and Affiliates across North America are celebrating Earth Day the week of April 20th.  Read more to learn about what they're doing and to access useful resources for celebrations in your community! 

In honor of Earth Day, this week’s shot celebrates a blessing over the earth and its water performed by representatives from many traditions including a Rabbi, a Swami, an Imam, and a Sister of Mercy on September 25, 2013 at UNICEF House in New York, USA.

The solution to a problem? Tackle it!

The three Cooperation Circles featured today have a common theme: helping disadvangated youth. By reaching out to the children of the next generation, these groups are not only making a difference in the lives of children, but are also making a wise investment in the future. 

Please join us in welcoming new Cooperation Circles to the URI family! This month brings us five new groups of interfaith leaders striving for peace and intercultural understanding. We look forward to working together and creating a better world.

Happy Vaisakhi (also known as Baisakhi), the Sikh New Year! Please join us in offering greetings and celebration from the United Religions Initiative community around the planet.
