Objective:
Let's write about stories of kindness and the difference it has made in your life so we can transform and inspire others to join us.

The Origin of World Kindness Day:

World Kindness Day evolved from a series of conferences in 1996-1997 in Japan by a group known as the World Kindness Movement.

These conferences brought together groups interested in promoting more kindness around the world. It culminated in the "Declaration of Kindness" on November 13,1997. With this declaration, a new and very special day was born.

I would like to have World Kindness - Wouldn't it be great? My kindness challenge is that everyone commit to performing Random Acts of Kindness, on this very day, and then blog about it.

I challenge other Bloggers to to participate and truly make a difference by performing "random acts of kindness" or "paying it forward."

Where did the concept of Random Acts of Kindness originate"

"Established in 1995 as a 501c3 nonprofit organization, The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation is a resource for people committed to spreading kindness. We provide a wide variety of materials on our website, including activity ideas, lesson plans, project plans, teacher’s guide, project planning guide, publicity guide, and workplace resources on our website at www.actsofkindness.org – all free of charge."
