The courage to connect
While many are experiencing division, it is possible to build trust in our communities.
Trust grows when we know each other, do good for each other, and honor each other in public. Let’s Go Together is our strategy to bring community groups of all backgrounds into public partnership.
We all see the strength of what divides us.
Anxiety about our current culture and economy is leading many to withdraw from each other. We are all concerned about the feeling of division in our communities. Social groups are often isolated from each other.
Our Response
We believe in the power of face-to-face relationships. Let’s Go Together invites people of all cultures, faith traditions, ethnic identities and socioeconomic situations to work together for the common good. PTU provides a vision, preparation, and practical support for wisdom communities to build meaningful relationships with their neighbors.
How Your Group can get Started
Actions speak louder than words. Contact us today to start planning one of these simple yet powerful activities with your neighbors:
- Share food and share stories across cultures and generations.
- Do service projects together.
- Show up at public events, setting a positive example of trust.
We work with local leaders to connect communities across cultures and traditions. Focusing on smaller towns and exurban areas, we build bridges where people are the most divided.
What are people saying about their LGT experience?
We’re all in such a bubble. It’s such a relief to have any opportunity to get out of the bubble.
We live across town from each other but we wouldn’t have met without Let’s Go Together. Now we’ve begun building a friendship and reaching out across cultures and religious beliefs.
It feels very inclusive, very friendly. Getting a lot of work done. It’s an incredibly warm environment.
I really enjoyed our conversations while putting together the food bags! I was struck by the similarities that unite us, rather than our differences.
Our current political climate is difficult. To be around people who want to create a safer, more inclusive country is really special.
It’s easy to get to know somebody if they’re actually in your presence. You can connect with almost anyone if they’re with you in the same space.
