Kids Being Kind creates opportunities for children to engage in "acts of lovingkindness" on a regular basis -- monthly or weekly. It creates experiences which exposes children to some of the needy population in a safe and controlled context. It helps children personalize social issues such as poverty, hunger, and elder isolation by letting them see these issues firsthand, and also teaching them about the issue and about the spiritual teachings informing our approach to serving our fellow. The Torah teaches us to love our neighbor; both Hillel and Jesus cited that as the greatest commandment; but we cannot love our neighbor if we do not know our neighbor. ​​​ Kids being Kind is about practicing the love of our neighbor. ​
