Compassionate Las Vegas is a grassroots network whose mission is to foster the Charter for Compassion and the movement of compassion in the Las Vegas, Nevada, area. Compassion acts as our guiding principle. Nearly all moral and religious institutions suggest a version of the Golden Rule that we should "do to others as you would have them do to you", and yet we are a world divided. We believe the need for more compassion is the most pressing issue of our time. Data support that love and compassion are not luxuries but necessities for human survival. We are here to host and inspire a network of compassionate businesses, government institutions, schools, groups, and individuals, so Las Vegas may be a more compassionate place to live, learn, work, and play.
We belong to a network of over 440 Compassionate Cities across 56 countries, which is expanding daily. In 2013, Mayor Carolyn Goodman endorsed the Charter on behalf of the City of Las Vegas.
