Will you stand
with us?
As we begin our 40th year of advocacy and education, will you invest in our future? Ignite Peace will continue to offer critical education, organize for systemic change, and work to build the nonviolent, just society we know is possible—one where peace is not only the absence of violence, but the presence of justice.
Whether you have been with us since our founding, or are new to our mission, we want you to be a part of our future.
Standing Firm Against Racism
Our fight to expose and dismantle oppressive systems of power is more urgent than ever. Across the country, efforts to address systemic racism and injustice are being silenced. In Ohio, Senate Bills 1 and 113 threaten access to truthful education.
These bills—like the executive order attacking Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs—send a chilling message: that telling the truth about our history is dangerous. That learning about racism, inequality, and injustice is optional—or worse, impermissible. At Ignite Peace, we believe the opposite.
Honest conversations rooted in care, especially when they are difficult or messy, illuminate injustice and reveal the ways to dismantle it. When traditional institutions fail to provide this education, we must step in.
