The goal of Mason Chooses Kindness is to ensure that there are ongoing activities/resources for our Mason students, faculty/staff, alumni, and community to explore, engage in, and most of all, have opportunities to spread kindness.
Mission: Create and sustain a kindness revolution at Mason.
Vision: As Mason Patriots, we change the world one small act of kindness at a time.
Mason’s Definition of Kindness: Intentionally engage in positive action that is friendly, caring, and compassionate towards self and others.
Mason – A Well-Being University: At Mason, we believe that we thrive together with shared success as one of our core values. Our goal is to evolve as a model well-being university, providing a place for all members of our Mason community where everyone thrives while contributing to others’ well-being.
We believe that young people are uniquely positioned to create this kinder, braver world because they are filled with hope, compassion, and a commitment to community, and they are defined by diversity, inclusivity, and a distinct perseverance that make them powerful beyond even their own wildest imaginations. ~ Lady Gaga
