School is out for summer!
Thank you to all who wrote kindness cards. Your combined efforts made The Kindness Project a terrific success.
- More than 2,000 kindness cards were written by kind volunteers
- "Envelopes of Encouragement" included a card, a letter from the Superintendent & stickers too
- Many of our writers individually wrote 100+ cards
- Some writers chose to remain anonymous
- Below are just a few of the many writers who submitted kindness cards

Kathy wrote hundreds of cards and that's not all.
Susan always included a joke and had colorful envelopes
“I’m excited to be a volunteer with The Kindness Project. It’s been fun writing individual cards to the school kids so that each one feels special. My friends and neighbors have enjoyed writing cards as well. We want the kids to know that people understand and care about them."
Brenna wrote inspiring cards in both English and Spanish
"The Kindness Project brought me such great joy to utilize this time to uplift and empower students with motivational phrases, words of wisdom and positive thoughts of encouragement." Brenna willingly shared her words with volunteers who preferred to follow a script.
Alesia even wrote Kindness cards while on vacation
Hundreds of cards were sent via snail mail

Volunteering in Our Schools
Your continued support, dedication and patience through the pandemic is greatly appreciated.
It is our HOPE to welcome volunteers back to the buildings in the fall. There are many factors that need to be taken into consideration before a final decision is made.
Stay tuned for more information. We will send out an update and guidelines for volunteers in the fall.
Enjoy your summer.
