National Random Acts of Kindness FREE Activities

                           

February 17 is National Random Acts of Kindness Day!

In today's society, how do we help instill kindness in students? 

Learning about different cultures and diversity helps students develop awareness for others and their needs. Around the world, there are teen role models whose kindness have impacted lives of citizens. Helping students become aware of kids who are empathetic role models will encourage them to take a stand or develop inventions that could help millions of people.
