Kindness Club was founded by high school student Colette Ruiz in June 2024 with the belief that kindness is the foundation for a prosperous and uplifting community. To Kindness Club, being kind means welcoming and listening attentively to a diversity of perspectives, or lending a helping hand when and where we can make a real difference.
Kindness Club is an international network of high school students dedicated to transforming our world through compassion and connection. Since 2024, Kindness Club has inspired thousands of high schoolers over five different countries. Currently, we have established more than eight international branches of Kindness Club.
Adhering to our motto “A Kind Act a Day”, we aim to foster a kind, inclusive, and united community by encouraging small acts of kindness every day. We want our members to feel a strong sense of belonging and thrive in our community.
Our hope is that we can approach life with enthusiasm, ready to learn, share, and help those around us.
We’re committed to spreading kindness around the world, one branch at a time. We believe small acts of kindness—listening, helping, showing up—unite communities. When replicated worldwide, small acts build into something far greater—a generation that leads with compassion.
