Compassionate Justice International Inc Information

Compassionate Justice Intl. was founded in 2008 by author/humanitarian Bob Scott. Mr. Scott first became involved in Zimbabwe in 1984 through his association with The Community of Reconciliation. The community was a racially integrated agri-based project located 40km south of Bulawayo. On Nov. 25th, 1987, sixteen white members of the community were brutally massacred and the community completely destroyed. This senseless act of violence sent economic development and racial relations in the region back decades. In 2007, Mr. Scott decided it was time the world learned of this extraordinary group of people and their vision for a different Zimbabwe. In conjunction with the release of his book "Saving Zimbabwe: Life, Death & Hope in Africa", Mr. Scott formed CJI as a practical and tangible way of helping Zimbabwe's oppressed poor. The organizations first project launch was a medical supplies initiative called "Compassionate Hands. The project was a huge success as CJI was able to send a 40ft shipping container full of $550,000 of medical supplies that were distributed to faith-based hospitals serving people in Zimbabwe's rural areas.
