Random Acts of Kindness
Your words have the power to inspire change and bring hope to those around you
How it works
We are encouraging our students to compose a statement focusing on a friend or family member experiencing tough circumstances, elaborating on their actions during these challenges.
We aim to offer a helping hand to the highlighted individuals encountering difficulties due to challenging circumstances. The recipients of this assistance should possess admirable character and be deserving of support.
ABFK will then read the statements and choose the top three, which will be voted for by ABFK sponsors and supporters.
At least $1,000 will be granted to the winning individual highlighted in the statement.
This will take place on Random Acts of Kindness Day, February 17th. This financial aid is intended to address the challenges outlined in the most inspiring statement, ensuring that the money directly benefits the recipient and not the writer of the statement.
