March 19, 2021 Atlanta, Georgia. “Silence” said President Joe Biden “is complicity”.

Fountain Project’s Board of Directors agrees. We speak in accordance with FP’s values of, diversity, equity and inclusion, to respond in solidarity to support the AAPI community right now, and forever. Expressions of violence and racism in any form are wrong and have no place in Fountain Project’s wonderfully diverse friends, donors, volunteers, and community partners of multiple identities.

​

One can't address the problem of “you/me/us” vs those who are different without acknowledging how huge the problem is. FP asks you to help us in solidarity: First, pay attention to yourself, your thoughts, your actions.  

​

How can you help the community?

• Ask if you can join someone who needs some companionship for a walk or to run errands with them to feel more secure out in their community? 

• This simple act of kindness: reaching out and offering assistance, works powerfully towards change. 

• Stay positive and continue with your practice to maintain your good health

• Kindness is the foundation of good health for the mind and body
