Acts of Kindness Calendar
At George Mason University, we hope to inspire change one small act of kindness at a time.
To celebrate, we created a monthly calendar challenge inspired by the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation to encourage daily acts of kindness in our community. Post a photo with a description of your daily act of kindness and include the hashtag #MasonChoosesKindness to showcase your acts of kindness! For an interactive PDF please click here.
Gratitude Challenge Sample Activities
Choose Kindness Challenge
- Modeled after the month-long well-being challenge
