Kindness Kards for Kiddos

Help me give my students construction paper, cardstock, and markers to create kindness cards!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lindsey's classroom raised $492

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help me give my students construction paper, cardstock, and markers to create kindness cards. My students will be able to create as many cards as they like so they can spread kindness around our school!

My students struggle with writing, but have a heart for service.

The perfect way my students can fill their own buckets while building their academic skills is by creating kindness cards for the students on our campus. With standardized testing coming up for K-5th grade students, my students want to spread kindness by writing cards to the other students on our campus to offer encouragement, a kind word, and support!
