repair the world
Mend what's broken
Repair the world translates the Hebrew phrase *tikkun olam*, a concept in Jewish thought that humans share responsibility for healing and improving the world through acts of social justice, kindness, and ethical conduct.
The phrase has moved beyond religious contexts into secular usage, particularly among activists and nonprofits: We believe in repairing the world one community at a time.
