Dear I-House Community, 

Giving Tuesday is one of the biggest giving days of the year. Will you give today to I-House to support the development of empathetic leaders?

In a world that seems increasingly divided, cultural humility and empathy have emerged as fundamental attributes we urgently need to instill in our future leaders. Our world needs leaders who can work together to find solutions to the pressing, collective challenges we face across the globe today.
