Our Mission

Encouraging teens to use their voice and take action—because you can always be kind, and doing nothing is not an option.

At Keep It Kind, we believe no act of kindness is ever wasted. As teens, we can’t solve every global issue, but we refuse to sit on the sidelines, especially when it impacts kids our age. If we each do our part, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of our peers.

In a world filled with challenges and unfair circumstances, we can’t change how these problems came to be, but we can always decide how involved we get and how we respond. Keep It Kind exists to remind every teenager that it’s possible to improve someone’s day, someone’s life, or even the world, one kind act at a time.

When you spread kindness in big and small ways, you remind everyone that you don’t have to be an adult to make a difference. We believe in turning compassion into action—especially when the world around us needs our help.

The Name

We chose the name because we believe kindness belongs at the heart of everything we do. It’s a way of showing that no matter our age, we can spark change, uplift others, and remind everyone that kindness always matters.

About Us

A youth-led community initiative founded on one simple belief: teens don’t have to wait to change the world-we start with kindness now

We started as two friends who saw few opportunities for teens to give back at a time when everything around us seemed uncertain and when volunteer opportunities for us were limited. Instead of waiting for doors to open (literally) we created our own opportunities- focusing on projects that spoke to us and captured our attention as young people. From backpack drives, to carnivals, to Halloween bingos, adopting families over the holidays, and other events designed to enrich the lives of local underserved kids, we found ways to connect, support, and make a difference. And what began as a small idea evolved into a much larger mission, encompassing everything that affects kids around the world.

Our Impact

Whether it’s organizing drives for disaster relief, rallying support for local families, or simply spreading compassion, we believe that doing something—no matter how small—is always better than standing by.
