AFRIKINDNESS

Afrikindness is a non-profit public-benefit organization with the primary aim of promoting acts of kindness amongst children and young adults, igniting a desire in them to make a positive impact in their communities. Afrikindness has a clear purpose focused on advancing education and the social and character development of children and young people, particularly those who have been racially marginalized, and socially and culturally excluded. Our four pillars are:-  Kindness to oneself (mental health, racial identity, etc); Kindness to others (empathy, racial harmony, etc); Kindness to the environment, and Kindness to Africa. We also have programs that focus on teachers and parents as they play a key role during the formative years of children. Overall, Afrikindness works towards creating a more inclusive and equitable society by empowering children and young people to be KIND and promoting the development of their social and emotional intelligence skills to help them thrive in their communities.
