We brought Knowsy® to 17 neighborhoods in Half Moon Bay during their National Night Out, an annual community-building campaign where millions of neighbors in the US host neighborhood events on the first Tuesday in August; hundreds of residents across these different neighborhoods (15 English and 2 Spanish versions) came together during a city-wide Day of Play to use Knowsy® as a means of connecting with those they lived nearest to but sometimes never had the opportunity to truly get to know.

The goal of Knowsy® is to build empathy and understanding among the players, helping them talk about a topic and learn about what others think about it without the typical difficulties that groups have in making sure everyone is both heard and has time to share their ideas. We want to create a National "Day of Play" where communities across the nation play Knowsy® to build connections with people they may have otherwise never taken the time to get to know.

Check out this article written by the Half Moon Bay Review outlining Knowsy's success in Half Moon Bay!

During his first year at Stanford, Half Moon Bay High School graduate David Pantera said an important takeaway involved giving back to the community.

The goal of Knowsy® is to build empathy and understanding among the players, helping them talk about a topic and learn about what others think about it without the typical difficulties that groups have in making sure everyone is both heard and has time to share their ideas. We want to create a National "Day of Play" where communities across the nation play Knowsy® to build connections with people they may have otherwise never taken the time to get to know.

The cities of Santa Fe, NM and Half Moon Bay, CA have agreed to integrate the Knowsy board game into their National Night Out, an annual community-building campaign where millions of neighbors in the US host neighborhood events on August 7th, 2018. We'd like to head there to facilitate a city-wide "Day of Play" within all of these communities in order to bring people together.

We've started a GoFundMe page in an attempt to raise enough money to manufacture and ship all of the Knowsy games we need to oversee the Days of Play! Please consider donating to this cause!

My dream is a National "Day of Play" where communities across the nation play Knowsy® to build empathy and connections with people they may have otherwise never taken the time to get to know. When I watch the news I worry that our society is devaluing the importance of empathy and compassion. A...
