Thanks for visiting Project Kindness!
Project Kindess started in New Orleans and we plan to touch every state in America and then the world. Our goal is to help other spread small acts of kindness and enjoy tracking the progress of their own Kindess Project.
Our world has far too much bad news - daily we are hit with more taxes, cost of living rising, bad news about crime, war, injustice and hunger. This is one small way that we can make a difference on a daily basis in the lives of others. It will not change the world, but at the very least it will change lives in small ways.
Your journey starts here!
May - August 2009 the kindness packettes will be offered for only $7.00! With the purchase of a Kindess Project Packette you can start spreading kindness, love and peace to others and check your link on these pages to see just how far your small acts of kindness have traveled through others! You may also do your Kindness Project in honor or memory of someone. Just include that in the comments when you order your packette. Their name will be listed as your Unique ID and will appear as "In memory of (name) on the tracking page for all to see.
HERE IS HOW IT WORKS!
You purchase a $6.00 (including shipping) Kindess Packette which will include 4 sturdy Act of Kindness cards and a sheet with ideas on how to spread the kindness to others in small acts. When you do a kind act for another person - hand them the KINDNESS card (it will have your unique ID number on it - but not your name) and it will explain the Project Kindness to them. They can then email Project Kindness to tell us about how the act made them smile or even changed their day, week or life! They then spread the Kindness to someone else giving the card to them. As your cards travel through the country (and maybe the world!) you can keep track of the stories from those who have received your cards with your own link on this website!
The $6 charged for the Kindess Project Packette simply pays for the printing and registering the cards (so that they can travel far and wide!), registration of your unique number, your link on this site and the website itself.
HOW CAN I SPREAD KINDNESS?
Place a favorite treat on a co-worker's desk when they are out, along with the Kindness card.
Pay the toll in the bridge toll lane for the person behind you and have the toll taker give the card to them.
Leave a small gift in the mailbox or on the doorstep of a friend or neighbor along with the card.
Cut a friends lawn and put the card in their mailbox
Your small acts of kindess are only limited to your imagination!!!
Check the TRACK YOUR KINDNESS pages for notes form those who have been hit by an act of kindness for ideas! Once you are a member you will receive a unique link just for your card numbers. Your name is never used and it is updated every 48 hours.
The goal is to reach each state by the end of summer 2009. but we can only do it with YOUR help!
Please consider joining the Kindess Project today and inspiring a world of kindness!
Have you had a kindness shown?
Pass it on;
'Twas not given for thee alone,
Pass it on;
Let it travel down the years,
Let it wipe another's tears,
'Til in Heaven the deed appears -
Pass it on.
~Henry Burton, Pass It On

A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.
