The idea

A yearly global reset for trust.

World Trust Day can become more than a celebration. It can become a global movement where people, families, schools, companies, governments, and organizations actively rebuild honesty, unity, and compassion.

L. Monte Cook III, known worldwide as Dr. Fantastic, has launched a campaign to establish September 21st as World Trust Day, a day dedicated to one of humanity’s most important values.

The campaign calls on people everywhere to sign the petition supporting the creation of World Trust Day. It takes only a few seconds to participate by entering your name, email, and vote.

Trust and kindness work together. The Kindness Revolution invites people to be kind to themselves, kind to all others, and kind to Mother Earth.

“Without trust, families crumble, friendships fail, businesses collapse, and nations divide.”
