MLK-Ali 40 Days of Peace and Greatness 2025

Let’s work together to lift each other up and build a more compassionate world!

On January 20th, 2025, history converged. The 30th MLK Day of Service aligned with the 47th Presidential Inauguration in the United States. People all over the world joined the International Kindness Team to honor Dr. King’s vision of justice and equality!

In support of the 2025 40 Days of Peace and Greatness hosted by the Compassion Games, from January 20th through March 1st, the IKT posted a “mission” for “secret agents of compassion” to complete each week. Each mission used the structure of the Three Steps to Thoughtful Action to assist participants:

  • AWARENESS – Noticing what is happening inside and outside of myself.
  • CONSIDERATION – Can I do something about a situation I’ve noticed? Do I want to do something about it? Do I have the resources, the time, the energy?
  • ACTION – If I decide to move forward, I complete the thoughtful action.

The six missions are available below for anyone to complete at any time. Let’s shape a future rooted in democracy, service, and shared purpose!

Week 1 (January 20-26): Mindful Gratitude
Week 2 (January 27-February 2): Partner Power
Week 3 (February 3-9): Friend to All
Week 4 (February 10-16): Giving What You Wish to Receive
Week 5 (February 17-23): Hidden Treasure
Week 6 (February 24-March 1): Ripple Effect

And here’s the introductory video that includes the music video for our song “What To Do.”
