Anyone can bring a positive difference in the world no matter their position in society, how much they earn and what their age is. Making good social changes does not require only charity of money, food, clothes and any big donation. Even a simple act of kindness can be count as a contribution to making a difference in the world. If we really want to make our world a better place to live, then we need to be more humble and thoughtful toward others and develop good qualities that can benefit not only us but people around us. Kindness and thoughtfulness are valuable traits that a human can have and hold the power to impact the world. Keeping this in mind and encouraging young students to be kinder, the Be Kind People Project has made available an amazing “Make A Difference Essay Contest”. Students K-8th Grade are welcome to apply.
The Be Kind People Project understands the importance of being kind and thoughtful and knows that these two traits are essential for building character in our children and creating a culture of kindness in our schools and communities.

The motive of this program is to celebrate positive behaviour, enhance the learning environment, and ignite a culture of kindness in schools, homes, and communities. This contest is a way to know the thoughts of the young generation on kindness and how they think they can make a positive impact on the world. The participants of the program will have to write down an essay on a given prompt.
