Connors Kindness Project
Who: The Be Kind Challenge for Schools (formerly The Kindness Club) is a Connor’s Kindness Project (CKP) initiative that benefits the overall well-being of elementary-age children with a specific focus on introducing them to community service and thinking about/supporting others.
Why: Start a The Be Kind Challenge? Kindness is the foundation on which all other values are based. CKP believes that kindness is contagious and one simple act can have a positive and lasting impact on the recipient. 
How: Participants will complete activities that improve well-being and promote kindness and inclusion. It also serves as a way to prevent bullying, by focusing on the positives of kindness.
Leaders: CKP will work with elementary school classrooms or entire school populations to implement the Be Kind Challenge. CKP and its Teen Volunteers will lead the Kindness Club Program under the guidance of our Executive Director, Sharon Marrama.
What: Simple projects like thank-you notes, giving an unsolicited compliment, helping out a neighbor or classmate, etc. teach students how to be mindful about the feelings of others. The volunteers will work with students (and group leaders) to create a lasting impact.
