On September 11, 2001, people from over 80 countries perished at the
hands of terrorists. We remember them and their loved ones. But we will
not allow hate and fear to dominate our lives. We will unify our efforts, and
strengthen our resolve! Today we celebrate our interdependence, the beauty of
our cultures, and the strength of the human spirit!
International Unity Day has been proclaimed by the International Institute
For Human Empowerment, Inc., as well as by City Councils, County Legislature,
and Lions Clubs. It has been celebrated by students and adults. Please join us on
this day of commemoration and celebration. For more information, including
suggested activities for all ages, go to www.humanempowerment.org and click

Unity Pledge
We welcome the advent of the new Millennium. We will meet its challenge by first
acknowledging that our planet is rich with diversity, but one in humanity. Together
we
pledge that we will support only the programs and
legislation that elevate all people toward equality. We desire to live
in peace with our brothers and sisters internationally, and will work
toward equity of opportunity in every area of our lives. We celebrate
our commitment to improving international relations by living
peacefully while sharing active concern for those less fortunate.
Together we unite in our desire to end oppression, hunger, and poverty
by seeking educational opportunities, including access to technology,
for all.
