Making a Difference:
SPCH is a grassroots organization. We operate on the principle that individuals can make a difference. Members of SPCH begin with themselves. We recognize that most if not all of us are capable of acts of cruelty, sometimes without even knowing it (for example, when we make fun of a child.) Our purpose is to nurture an attitude of profound respect for other human beings because that is the source of humane behavior.
Dolphin Club members choose to act kindly, to support acts of kindness by others, and to oppose cruelty wherever it is found and whatever form it takes. SPCH also equips people to reduce acts of cruelty perpetrated against themselves. For example, see the Predator Alerts page, which provides information that can spare members a lot of grief..
| Charter Member's Comment:
This seems an inspired idea; I like the whole premise. I like that it is based on Judeo-Christian principles but transcends religion. I can see you as a crusader for kindness, decency, and dignity--maybe even with a cape (just kidding).
Seriously, while other organizations may have a component of what you are doing, I can't think of any created solely for that purpose. It's as if human decency has gone without saying, and now it's just gone.
I think you are on to something. I am excited about it, and I would love to be involved in any way I can make a positive contribution.
