Together, We’re Building
a Kinder Country

Welcome to the United States of Kindness, a national movement inspiring every American to take part in 250 Acts of Kindness, building a culture of compassion, connection, and unity across the nation.

To establish kindness as a defining national value, leaving a legacy of unity that extends beyond America’s 250th anniversary.

The United States of Kindness challenges every person, organization, and community to participate in 250 acts of kindness, one for every year of our nation’s history. These acts can be large or small, but together, they form a movement that connects people and restores hope in what we share as Americans.

This is more than a campaign. It is a call to act with intention, to notice the good around us, and to celebrate kindness in every form. Each story and every act contributes to a shared goal: making kindness the cornerstone of America’s 250th year.

The United States of Kindness officially launches in 2026 with a collective challenge: 250 Acts of Kindness. Join us in creating a legacy of compassion and unity that defines America’s next chapter.

Powered by People Who Care

The United States of Kindness is supported by incredible partners who believe that kindness builds stronger communities.

The Challenge is simple.

Participate in 250 acts of kindness throughout 2026, individually or as part of a school, company, or community. Acts can be big or small: helping a neighbor, thanking a teacher, mentoring a student, or giving back to your community. Every act counts. Share your story and inspire others to do the same. Together, we will show the world that kindness is America’s greatest strength.

Join the movement and help spread kindness in your community today.
