#FASTFORPEACE

Fast for Peace is a project that promotes Gandhi’s messages of truth and nonviolence, tolerance, and voluntary temperance.

The 15th of every month is a #fastforpeace day. Members and non-members alike are invited to participate.

Gandhi inspired millions by demonstrating truth and nonviolence as facets of self-control.

He fasted at the risk of his own life and saved countless others.

April’s #fastforpeace charity

Each month, participants in the fast for peace are encouraged to donate the money they save on food to help others, and invited to nominate a charity for upcoming months. For Aperil, World Beyond War was nominated and selected. Launched in 2014, they challenge the idea that war is natural or inevitable, using education and nonviolent activism that moves the world toward ending war.

“Fasting is regarded by all religions as a great discipline. Those who voluntarily fast become gentle and purified by it. A pure fast is a very powerful prayer. It is no small thing for [hundreds of thousands] of people to voluntarily abstain from food… It ennobles individuals and nations” ~ Mohandas Gandhi
