ENCOURAGING ALL TO MAKE PEACE A LIFESTYLE
This January marks the 14th Annual New York Peace Week. Peace Week is a week-long series of events from January 15 – 22nd in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy of non-violence.
Hosted by LIFE Camp and the City of New York, the goal of Peace Week is to create a culture of peace throughout our City by hosting events, performing activities or encouraging personal actions toward creating inner peace and setting a positive example for our young people.
VIRTUAL CAMPAIGN
Working with a strong network of artists, creatives, influencers and partner organizations, we’re launching a visual social media campaign to bring New Yorkers together and make a commitment to Peace + Wellness.
We’re encouraging New Yorkers from all walks of LIFE to host their own private or public events with intentional conversations around wellness.

PLEDGE FOR PEACE
Every year, more than 30,000 Americans have their lives cut short by gun violence.
The Peace Week Pledge is designed to reinforce each individual's personal commitment to making Peace a LIFEstyle 365 days a year.
In his New York Times Op Ed piece, even President Barack Obama said all of us have a role to play to end the epidemic of gun violence.
We encourage you to take the pledge, share with your school, co-workers, family and friends.
Together we can make peace a LIFEstyle.
