Summer Kindness Program

Cultivate Goodness wants to empower kids to become leaders in kindness. No matter the size, every act of kindness has an impact. We’ve teamed up with local businesses this summer so your child can win prizes for being kind!

Here’s how it works:

  1. Register your child/children.
  2. Download and print the Summer Kindness Chart. Discuss ways of showing kindness.
  3. Fill in the circles with each act of kindness performed. 
  4. When the prize circle is filled in, take the chart to the corresponding business and redeem your reward. Have fun!
  5. Continue to practice kindness habits.

Register your kids by filling out the form below.
