About the 10 Days of Connection
In recent years, people have become increasingly divided across lines of difference. Incidents of hate have increased and tolerance for differing ideas has decreased. The 10 Days of Connection was born to challenge divisiveness!
For 10 days each year (May 1 - May 10), we invite the entire community to do the opposite: break down silos, engage in acts of connection, and celebrate differences. We do this by organizing events (also know as Connection Experiences).
As long as human conflict prevails, the 10 Days of Connection will continue to exist. JOIN THE MOVEMENT!
