  2. Random act of kindness… • A random act of kindness is a selfless act performed by a person or people wishing to either assist or cheer up an individual person or people.

  3. Examples of RAK • In 2006, a Free Hugs Campaign was made popular by a music video on YouTube. • The One Million Random Acts of Kindness Campaign (RAK) launched on BBC Radio in 2008.[5] • An Australian TV-show called Random Acts of Kindness, on Channel 9, shows hosts Karl Stefanovic, Scott Cam and Simmone Jade Mackinnon giving gifts to people they identify as heroes.[6] • HelpOthers.org is the home of Smile Cards and a portal of kindness stories, ideas, and online groups. It allows people to send random notes of kindness to others.[7] • The Newton Project attempted to quantify the benefits of the Random Act of Kindness concept in order to motivate people to perform additional acts of kindness.[8] • On the 14 November 2012 an NYPD officer, Lawrence DePrimo, was photographed giving socks and a pair of boots he had purchased to a bare-footed homeless man. The photograph later went viral.[9]

  4. Our own RAK • Begley students donated more than 400 cans and non perishable food items to our community. • RBC and Canadian Tire (Walker Rd.) donate two SUV’s full of sporting goods to the students of F.W. Begley Public School.
