I'd love to start a "church" for non-religious people who just want a community of people who do good things together.

To be honest, I've always felt that it's unfair that people can form communities based on religion, but it's hard to find a community of non-religious people who just want to do some good in the world but not get together under the name of some religion.

EDIT: Some people are saying, wait, what about volunteer groups? I get that it sounds like that's what I'm describing, but what I'm thinking about is more along the lines or a community who helps its members as well as doing charitable activities. In volunteer groups, you go, do whatever needs to be done, and maybe make some friends. There's also a lot of turnover, because many people just volunteer because they have to do it for school. I think that church communities focus on helping each other through rough times, and people stick around for much longer time periods.
