It’s a simple concept, with a large-scale impact. Think reaching 10,000 teachers and 750,000 students was cool in 2011/2012? Now we are going to reach nearly 50,000 teachers with kindness this 2012/2013 school year, and pledge 1,750,000 kids to kindness, and here’s how it’s happening.
Join the nation’s largest-ever student pledge for kindness!!
Students can make the promise to themselves and their classmates to focus on the positive power of kindness in their schools – and then show that commitment by signing The Be Kind Pledge™. One by one, students can stand up and be counted. Everyone can participate….every student counts….and the results can be awesome.
Let’s show that a million kids care about positive relationships and behavior in schools. It’s easy to get involved — click here to see how.
Classroom Kindness Kits
The Be Kind People Project™ provides a special gift of encouragement and recognition inside the Classroom Kindness Kit for the 50,000 teachers who give from their heart to the children they teach every day. It lets them know how much they are appreciated and needed, 365 days a year!
The gift includes a Teacher Appreciation Gift and Thank You message, designed to thank and encourage the teacher to continue the commitment and dedication. It also includes a Be Kind Kid™ Pledge cards and instructional aids that inspire positive conversations about kindness in the classroom. We have already seen thousands of kids take the pledge!
Our Classroom Kindness Kit!
Our generous sponsors also include a variety of fun products for each teacher.
Check out how these gifts were distributed to teachers in under-privileged schools in Phoenix, Kansas City and Los Angeles.
And there’s still more teachers to impact – find out how you can get these gifts to more teachers by donating to the Project or buying a Classroom Kindness Kit for your school.
(And read more about how the first kits were assembled and produced! It was a fun-filled evening at a private event called Holiday Crafts, Cheers & Laughs®, with 400 women with hearts filled with gratitude and hands willing to help.)
