White board filled in with answers to our question: What makes Watertown welcoming?

Watertown Walks for Peace (WW4P) raised over $5,500

for the 2023 Mother’s Day Walk for Peace

to support the Louis D. Brown Peace Institute.

 Thanks to all who joined the walk and all who donated, enabling us to surpass our goal of $4,000.

All donations support the mission of the Louis D. Brown Peace Institute,

with the goal of empowering survivors and communities impacted by murder, trauma, grief and loss to cultivate cycles of peace and healing.

 

World in Watertown is proud to have joined these other sponsors: 

Watertown Citizens for Peace, Justice, and the Environment; Progressive Watertown; First Parish of Watertown; Church of the Good Shepherd; Belmont Watertown United Methodist Church

Mission

World in Watertown is a civic organization founded in 1999 to protect and promote non-discriminatory practices in Watertown, Massachusetts. In the years following, we expanded our mission to:
 

  • Create and support local educational programs and other initiatives to honor our city’s diversity,

  • Bring together members of the community to celebrate our cultural differences,

  • Advocate for fair and equal treatment for all, and

  • Sponsor the annual Watertown Unity Breakfast on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.


Together with individuals, community organizations, faith communities, schools, businesses, and city agencies, we have worked to build bridges of cooperation to further strengthen Watertown as a welcoming place for all.
