The call of the great outdoors offers children adventures every day and a connection to something much bigger than themselves. If you're a parent pondering how to nurture this love of nature in your children, you're not alone.
In an age marked by rapid digital interaction, the ability to engage emotionally and understand others' perspectives is becoming increasingly important. For parents and caregivers, equipping youngsters with tools to express and interpret emotions constructively is pivotal to their future success and happiness.
There are some practical ways to help your child discover their passion for change and channel their energy and enthusiasm in a positive direction. Whether it's through volunteering, fundraising, advocacy, or simply being kind to others, you can make service and kindness a cornerstone of your family's values and build a better world together.
Kindness is a powerful force that makes a lasting impact on individuals and communities alike. For the past two decades, Doing Good Together has been dedicated to promoting a culture of kindness and empathy throughout the United States. As we enter our 20th year of service, we are thrilled to share with you some exciting opportunities to join us in our mission of spreading kindness.
With so much to do and so little time, it’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle. This year, take a step back and focus on what’s truly important. Embrace kindness and show others gratitude. Give yourself and those around you the gift of your time and attention.
One way to simultaneously show gratitude and address anxiety, depression, and lack of control is by doing something positive. This Thanksgiving season let’s challenge one another to give thanks by giving back. Together, we can spread kindness, compassion, and generosity to make a difference in the world.
