My Project

Here at our middle school, a variety of sixth, seventh, and eighth graders are part of The Kindness Crew. The mission of The Kindness Crew is to improve community through intentional acts of kindness, provide environments for belonging and safety, and coach others in leading in kindness. This club partakes in many leadership opportunities to spread the mission among faculty, staff, and students.

Once a month, The Kindness Crew takes part in an initiative to spread goodwill to the kindergarten classrooms by reading books with the kindness theme and teaching these young students by example.

The Kindness Crew is in desperate need of filling our library with books that teach tolerance and compassion for others to use during our kindergarten readings. As well, we are hoping to replenish some materials that are used in our kindness lessons. We also need fairy lights and copy paper.

These middle school students are filled with excitement to be able to spread this positive message to their younger counterparts! Please help support this project and our mission to spread kindness!
