The full message reads: “I am my mother’s son. And I am our son’s mother. Together we bring you Archewell.

“We believe in the best of humanity. Because we have seen the best of humanity. We have experienced compassion and kindness, from our mothers and strangers alike.

We believe in the best of humanity. Because we have seen the best of humanity.

“In the face of fear, struggle and pain, it can be easy to lose sight of this.

“Together, we can choose courage, healing, and connection.

“Together, we can choose to put compassion in action. We invite you to join us. As we work to build a better world, one act of compassion at a time.”
