Press Release
Shinnyo-en Foundation Launches Global Six Billion Paths to Peace Initiative
March 19, 2008 12:01 AM EDT
Tomorrow, March 20, 2008, the Shinnyo-en Foundation will launch the Six Billion Paths to Peace initiative globally, encouraging all people to pledge their commitment to promote harmony and peace through meaningful acts of service.
In one year, the Shinnyo-en Foundation hopes to have inspired one million people to pledge their Path to Peace. To commemorate the launch, a full-day "Path to Peace" event in Times Square invites the public to consider the daily contributions they can make to create a more harmonious world. Following the activities in Times Square, the evening's Pathfinders to Peace Awards Gala and Forum will convene hundreds of leaders from the philanthropic, academic, religious, business, political, artistic, and cultural communities to illuminate, exemplify, and amplify their commitments and contributions to their communities.
Path to Peace in Times Square
...
The day will begin with a literal Path to Peace constructed in the heart of Times Square -- one of the busiest places on earth. The Path to Peace, open to the public from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. EDT, is a lush garden oasis amidst the bustle of New York City, demonstrating that no matter where you are or who you are, it is possible to find and create peace.
Celebrities and dignitaries, including Mr. Inouye, Henry Lozano (Deputy
Assistant to President Bush and Director of USA Freedom Corps), and Bianca Ryan (winner of America's Got Talent), will lay the final stones to
complete the actual Path to Peace on Military Island in Times Square.
Ms. Ryan will also perform at the event. The Kindred Spirits Children's Jazz Choir, a group of children drawn from three choirs around the metropolitan area, will perform throughout the morning. Several Shinnyo-en Foundation grantees and the general public will be encouraged to submit their personal Path to Peace, which can be as simple as committing to carpool with others or holding doors open for strangers.

What a perfect event and honor for Bianca! Thanks, Otto! That organization
sounds cool too!
There were anti-war protests in Times Square today too, it's the 5th anniversary of "shock and awe" in Iraq. |

Jerry, Bobby, you both did a much better job of writing how I FEEL about this
Bianca event than I did! My first reaction was to be overwhelmed with pride and tears because, as Bobby said 'that is so like her"! You both are exactly right! Thank you! I never doubt that being a Bianca Ryan FAN is the right thing to be! |

I think that Bianca will sing THIS song. 
"This girl has all the things the recent popstars didn't have.
She can move people. She can make a different in this world.
A new star with soul and passion. She really touch your heart."
"Hate the war... Love Bianca" |

I hope she sings that one Otto. It's one of my top 3 faves. I wish I was rich so I could leave work, hop into my Lear jet, and fly to NYC to see this event  |
