Testimonials
“Being a member of the Mason Chooses Kindness Committee has reaffirmed my love for George Mason University. As a proud graduate of GMU (Class of 2012) and a staff member since 2017, I have had the privilege of working alongside individuals who believe kindness is the foundation of a healthy, inclusive, and welcoming community. Leading the Pats for Patriots program has allowed me to witness firsthand the profound impact kindness can have on our campus, strengthening connections and fostering a culture of appreciation. I am grateful to be part of a committee that champions these values every day.” – Philip Wilkerson, Employer Engagement Consultant, University Career Services
“I was invited to join the MCK committee after being nominated as a Kindness Ambassador, a role that deeply aligns with my passion for spreading kindness and positivity within the Mason community. What resonates most with me is the committee’s commitment to fostering a culture of goodwill and connection across campus. One of my favorite moments was being recognized as an Ambassador and receiving my certificate, a meaningful acknowledgment of kindness’s impact in creating a supportive and uplifting environment.” – Ayce B.
