The training prepared me to lead with compassion, and how to tackle challenges facing our organization with effective compassionate solutions.

                         – International NGO Leader


The world hungers for compassion to help heal its suffering, remove the sources and systemic issues responsible for creating and perpetuating suffering, and ensure a sustainable, flourishing future. That means the world needs compassionate leaders more now than ever before…and you can help!

In the last several years, 600+ leaders from 54 countries have completed our Compassionate Leadership Certification Training – training that has been independently evaluated and shown to significantly improve participants’ compassion for themselves, for others, and at work. These alumni are already making a profound impact in organizations around the globe.

With your donation, the nonprofit Center for Compassionate Leadership will be able to accelerate the growth of compassion by training more qualified leaders through our scholarship program.

HELP US TRAIN MORE LEADERS TO ACTIVATE POSITIVE ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE

In 2025, our commitment is to make Compassionate Leadership Certification Training available to many more leaders who are passionate changemakers, regardless of their ability to pay. As more leaders applied for training, we delivered $75,000 in scholarships in 2024.

With your support, we will be able to grow the scholarships we can offer to qualified leaders in situations similar to prior scholarship recipients, such as:

  • The displaced leader from a war-torn nation who is supporting colleagues back home.

  • The nonprofit entrepreneur who is creating a new initiative to meet the needs of inner-city residents.

  • The single-parent nurse supervisor whose entire pay supports their family.

  • The Ministry of Health leader in a country where economic realities limit their budget.

We humbly invite your support to cover more scholarship funding in 2025.

OUR PARTICIPANTS COME FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD
