A powerful message of global unity and grassroots compassion echoed through the halls of the UN Church Center Chapel on May 28, 2025, during the 12th Annual Commemoration of the Declaration of World Peace and Peace Walk. Organized by HWPL and supported by Save the People USA, the event brought together interfaith leaders, peace advocates, and humanitarian organizations committed to building bridges of understanding across cultures and communities.
This year’s commemoration held special significance, as it underscored the importance of everyday acts of compassion in a world grappling with conflict and division. As part of its partnership with HWPL, Save the People USA participated in the event to amplify the message that peace is not just a global goal but a daily practice rooted in kindness and service.
Representing Save the People USA, Office Manager Fatima Niass offered reflections on how the organization’s ongoing humanitarian efforts foster hope and dignity. She spoke of the transformative power of small gestures—such as a meal delivered to a struggling family or the presence of a caring volunteer during times of crisis. Stories from the organization’s food distribution initiatives were shared as tangible examples of how peace is nurtured through compassion.
The organization’s presence at this international gathering was a reaffirmation of its broader mission: to uplift vulnerable communities and promote harmony through inclusive outreach. With a focus on marginalized groups and interfaith collaboration, Save the People USA continues to strengthen bonds that transcend religious and cultural divides.
Under the visionary leadership of CEO Muhammad Shahidullah, Save the People USA has grown into a trusted voice in advocacy and community development. The group’s participation in the annual HWPL peace walk exemplifies its deep-rooted belief that sustainable peace starts with active listening, empathy, and collaboration at every level—local, national, and global.
The event at the UN Church Center drew participants from various backgrounds, each contributing to a shared vision of coexistence. Through speeches, symbolic gestures, and community storytelling, the atmosphere resonated with a spirit of solidarity and renewal. While the occasion honored the legacy of past peace declarations, it also served as a platform for reinforcing the need for continued action and moral courage in today’s world.
Involvement in the event is part of a broader series of partnerships Save the People USA has developed to create long-term impact. From education programs to emergency response, the organization has consistently prioritized community well-being with a strong emphasis on inclusivity and justice.
By supporting the peace walk and engaging in shared dialogue, Save the People USA not only highlighted its work on the ground but also aligned itself with global networks striving for sustainable, people-centered peace.
As the event came to a close, one sentiment was clear: building a peaceful future depends on those willing to serve today. For Save the People USA, that service continues—with compassion as the foundation and unity as the goal.
