Dear Friends, Members, Media…

2026 will be Good News Corporation (GNC), our 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit, est. 2002, 24TH Annual Commitment to MOTHER EARTH and those WHO LIVE ON HER IN PEACE to share the GOOD NEWS THAT IS ALL AROUND US.

WHY? It’s simple, why we have made this MOTHER EARTH AND PEACE COMMITMENT, it is because we have been honored to build a TRUST with many that our united efforts are being done with respect, love, wisdom, community, family…. Stated, we are here for the MISSION, not the GLORY…

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL. May all your dreams come true, and may you not overeat, and may you share a thought for those who don’t have all that we have with humility and compassion.

PLEASE: Should you know a philanthropist, high net worth individual, foundation, and or corporation, whose mission aligns with ours, please introduce them to us so we can share more of those doing good for MOTHER EARTH AND PEACE. We need you and those who receive a 2025 Tax Deduction.

Once again, here is some Good News to share with you and your community.

Dear Friends and Members, 

As Thanksgiving soon will be upon us, let’s cherish what we have in our lives. I love this video about the older couple as our Thought for the Day. It represents the realities of living with another, from marriage to friendship to a stranger, and even an enemy. Everyone has their OWN IDENTITY AND CULTURAL BELIEFS…support them, discuss with them, be compassionate to them, and live in Peace with them. True, it’s not easy…but the REWARD IS MORE PEACE ON EARTH. HAPPY THANKSGIVING, ALL…MAY ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE?

We have many Good News Stories to share with you today.

PLEASE DON’T FORGET THAT THIS HOLIDAY SEASON IS A PERFECT OPPERTUNITY FOR A TAX DEDUCTION BY HELPING TO STRENGTHEN THE MESSAGE FOR CARING FOR MOTHER EARTH AND WORLD PEACE:

Our Good News Corporation, GNC, a 501 C 3 Nonprofit, was created in 2002 with a mission to use media to develop HUMANITARIAN content and events. GNC has lived up to this mission and, in 2026, will celebrate our 24^th International Day of Peace Concerts and Earth Day. It has never been easy to create our events, but so many have donated their time and talents that we have still been able to survive. Next year is a challenge, as our expenses have risen due to a Grammy Network Crew, Professional Stage, Insurance Increases, and much more. However, the results are really great: more than 4 Million Impressions, live views, an all-day audience in Times Square averaging 250,000 per day, and various websites.

If you can, please consider TAX DONATIONS for our events, as there are many benefits to make it worth your involvement, from being on stage to share your Good News for Mother Earth and World Peace, LED Signage All Day, Public Relations, Networking and a forever opportunity to share your message and attendance with friends, board, shareholders, stakeholders and family. WE are serious marketing professionals with 40 years of experience and will make your involvement a WIN-WIN and a WIN for MOTHER EARTH & PEACE.

New York, NY, September 18, 2025 – Saturday, September 20, 2025, Times Square will transform into a hub for global peace when Pause the World for Peace and May Peace Prevail On Earth International (MPPOE) unite forces to honor the International Day of Peace. The event, held from 11:30 AM to 4:30 PM, invites people in Times Square and around the world to participate in a day of unity, compassion, and collective visioning for a peaceful world.

In partnership with Good News Corporation and founder Paul Sladkus, participants will be invited to “plant” a virtual Peace Pole on the world map at www.plantpeace.worldpeace.org/, sharing their personal message for peace.

The day will also feature a powerful World Peace Flag Ceremony, led by MPPOE at 4pm Easten, honoring the 193 nations of the United Nations while uplifting the universal message: May Peace Prevail On Earth.

“Peace and Mother Earth Lovers, there are billions of you—let’s celebrate,” said Paul Sladkus, Founder of Good News Corporation. “Plant a Peace Pole—virtually or physically. Imagine 8 billion Peace Poles around the world! Together, let’s make this vision of global peace visible and real.”

Since 2002, Sladkus and Good News Corporation have supported the International Day of Peace, hosting Peace Vigils in New York’s Central Park and producing media to uplift the voices of peace. Today, their efforts connect with MPPOE’s decades-long mission of spreading peace through Peace Poles, an initiative launched in Japan by Masahisa Goi after the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, who envisioned Peace Poles planted in every corner of the world. To date, more than 200,000 Peace Poles have been planted across the globe.

“By inviting people to plant Peace Poles—whether in their communities or virtually—we’re giving the world something tangible to focus collective intention and energy on peace,” said Fumi Johns Stewart, Executive Director of MPPOE. “When people plant Peace Poles inscribed with the message, May Peace Prevail On Earth, we raise the consciousness of our global family to think and act in the Spirit of Peace.”

The event in Times Square is a call for peace, unity, and action. A Global Silent Minute for Peace will be observed at 12 Noon. This initiative reminds us that peace is possible—when we choose it together.

A Message from Our Vice President,
Dr. Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura

Dear Friend –

I arrived in America in 1962, a young Japanese woman intent on a career in music. In the six decades since, I have overcome prejudice through Courage and Compassion to have triumphed in three fields – international Impresario, oriental medical doctor, and philanthropist.

My memoirs, my lessons learned, are now available in print in Amazon – two volumes with images and narratives of my years of experiences. I HUMBLY REQUEST YOU JOIN MY “LAUNCH TEAM.” I request you jot down a short review for use in marketing my story around the world.

The title of book is Journey of Courage and Compassion by Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura, PhD. It has two volumes. The book volume I is already live sale in www.amazon.com. You need to search my book title and author’s name in Amazon. Please download eBook (digital version) instantly at $2.99 and I will reimburse you. You can also write a review at same place. I am in a final process of completing volume II to go live sale within a week.

I hope to share with you my experiences with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Leonard Bernstein, Mother Teresa, Pavarotti, Princess Grace, etc. My life has been an interesting journey. I hope my experience will encourage the next generation to find their own.

With gratitude and compassion,

Dr Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura

Album & Accompanying Booklet to Release on July 6th, Honoring His Holiness’ 85th Birthday

“Compassion,” the first track released today, sets the tone of the album, by cultivating love and empathy for ourselves and all beings

“Music has the potential to reach many more people with the message that the real source of happiness is warm-heartedness and a concern for others” – The Dalai Lama

June 9th, 2020 – As announced today, Khandro Music will release a unique album of mantras and teachings by The Dalai Lama set to music, entitled Inner World. Released to honor his 85th birthday celebrations on July 6th, 2020, the album will be a great dedication to the decades of his vision and work for world peace and educating the heart.

When asked why he accepted the request to make the album, he answered, “The very purpose of my life
is to serve as much as I can.” He also added, “Music can help people in a way that I can’t.”

Inner World is an offering of the Dalai Lama reciting mantras and giving short teachings all woven to a bed of music (please see tracklisting below). The album will be released in conjunction with an Inner World companion booklet, revealing the benefits of the mantras written by Venerable Robina Courtin, and exclusive, stunning artwork; a collaboration between the acclaimed New Zealand duo of Ella Brewer (classically trained Thanka Painter) and Tiffany Singh (an award-winning visual artist). This particular work of theirs is a combination of traditional Tibetan and contemporary art.

In addition to this announcement today, Inner World has debuted the first offering from the project, the “Compassion” mantra, one of the most famous Buddhist prayers. Reciting
the mantra of the Buddha of Compassion (known in Tibetan as Chenrezig and in Sanskrit as Avalokiteshvara) is said to open our hearts and bring us closer to others, to feel love and compassion through wisdom, generating a desire to help.

“Compassion” is out now, listen: HERE
To view the “Compassion” mantra video click: HERE

The origins of Inner World began in 2015, when one of the project’s co-executive producers and a longtime student of The Dalai Lama, Junelle Kunin, wrote to him requesting his participation, by fervently explaining her feelings that an album by such a compassionate and wise being would help people particularly who struggle with emotional stress. After reading her letter, his response was enthusiastic, saying, “This will benefit many people!”. She and her husband Abraham Kunin, both from New Zealand, spent the next five years working with a small team to bring the project to life. The Dalai Lama’s recordings have been thread through music composed by Abraham and performed on thirty-plus instruments by himself and a cast of collaborators from around the world, including a special guest performance from Anoushka Shankar on “Ama La.” The composer integrated the live performances with artful programming and production, building a peaceful bedrock for these sacred offerings.

Net proceeds from the sales of Inner World will go to The Gaden Phodrang Foundation of the Dalai Lama (Switzerland) chosen program: Social, Emotional and Ethical Learning (SEE Learning), an international K-12 education program and part of an academic collaboration between Emory University and His Holiness; and Mind and Life Institute, which brings science & contemplative wisdom together to better understand the mind & create positive change in the world.
