It's Election Day

The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.
— Abraham Lincoln, March 4, 1861

This famous quote from Lincoln’s first inaugural address came up in THP’s morning meeting, and it was a reminder that at the heart of the great American experiment is our collective choice to always strive to nurture the “better angels of our nature.”

The cornerstone of our democracy is our own participation in it. So please vote today.

Second to voting, we believe that education has been, and remains, fundamental to enduring, democratic freedom and progress, here and around the world.

As President John F. Kennedy said, "Our progress as a nation can be no swifter than our progress in education. The human mind is our fundamental resource."

Even though a single vote, much like a single donation, may feel small, collectively each one matters in determining the future of communities, nations, and the world.

So vote for democracy.

And donate for education.
