I want to congratulate our KIND University Ambassador at the University of Texas, Jane Claire Hervey, on being awarded the Good Neighbor Award for working to spread KINDness on campus. She was one of 2 (out of 52,000) students awarded, and we are proud to have her on our KIND Team.

Congratulations to the NBA’s MVP — Kevin Durant! He deserves this honor, not just for his strength on the court, but for his courage to be kind both on and off the court. We are proud to partner with this STRONG & KIND individual, and I am inspired by the beautiful speech that he gave when he accepted his award.

Welcome KIND Team to the new KIND Headquarter Offices!

Daniel shares the values most integral to the KIND team in his interview with Dr. Woody in Fox Business News. Values such as authenticity, transparency, commitment to excellence and team spirit contribute to a positive work environment and KIND’s success.

Strong and kind are two words you don’t see together everyday. We’ve teamed up with NBA All-Star Kevin Durant to prove the best way to show strength is to choose kindness. And to play it forward even more, KIND is donating $1 million to the Kevin Durant Charity Foundation to create specialized education and after-school programming for at-risk youth to teach them how to be STRONG & KIND.

Join us in reaching 1 million STRONG & KIND pledges to support our $1 million donation to Kevin Durant’s foundation. Take the pledge at StrongandKind.com.

Romy’s dream is below!

Jennifer Armstrong from Fast Company checked in to see what we’ve been up to for the last 10 years.
