Global Compassion builds intercultural relationships based on respect and understanding through travel, education, and communication. Our vision is to create Global Communities committed to the mutual exchange and implementation of ideas that support human rights, social justice, peace, and environmental sustainability worldwide. The Global Compassion Pen Pal Project (Urafiki wa Kalamu) and The Cross Cultural Video Project connects Tanzanian and U.S. students, teachers, and schools to foster intercultural understanding and intellectual curiosity that enhance education and relationships from a global perspective.
