Mission
Signs2Peace.org is a 501 c (3) nonprofit dedicated to spreading the language of peace to all of the people of the world through the support of educational, humanitarian, and spiritual outreach programs.
Belief
"The road to peace is easy to find, when you follow the signs." Regardless of one's age, race, religion, or creed, we believe the language of peace is universal and that it can be learned, practiced, and followed in order to achieve peace within one's self and with others. These signs include: love, hope, kindness, understanding, gentle hands, and self-control.
