Help Every Day is a newly founded, not-for-profit organization that invites people around the world to make their compassion count – every single day.
We envision a world where massive social and economic injustice is a dark chapter of yesterday’s agenda. Step by step we contribute to the development of communities and societies through the promotion of economic justice and protection of universal human rights.
This is the essence. The world is connected, and we’re all in this together. In our view, there is no difference between helping each other and helping ourselves.
Our mission is to support the poorest people of the world in their struggle to rise out of poverty. We’ve created a radical economic method that allows everybody in the world with a credit card to make a contribution – every single day. We call this method Coins of Compassion. The smallest coin in any currency equals one Coin of Compassion. Something everybody can easily afford to help fight social and economic injustice. Everybody can do it and everybody gives the same. That’s why we think there’s really no good reason not to do it.
Compassion is not just a fluffy concept. It’s very real, but only when it actually reaches another person and makes a difference. Until then it’s nothing but a concept.
