Random Acts of Kindness Day HistoryRandom Acts of Kindness Day encourages individuals to commit small, unexpected acts of kindness to bring joy and positivity to others. The purpose of this initiative is to motivate people to be kind without expecting anything in return, thereby fostering empathy and a sense of community. It's an opportunity for Kiwis, or people residing in New Zealand, to engage in selfless service and kindness, both in their local communities and wider society. Random Acts of Kindness Day can be traced back to 1995, the brainchild of an American non-profit organisation, the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation. Adopted around the world, New Zealand has embraced this celebration with a unique fervour. Through various random acts of kindness, Kiwis act out their inherent communal spirit, displaying the quintessential attributes of warmth and friendliness the nation is known for. From purchasing a stranger's coffee to volunteering in local community projects, the engagement in RAKD is diverse and commendable. In New Zealand, RAKD is typically observed in September. Schools, businesses, and individuals come together to celebrate this day by performing acts of kindness in their communities, often driven by themes or causes. These could range from environmental awareness initiatives to gestures contributing to a more caring community. Education providers often dedicate the week around this observance for activities teaching empathy and kindness to their students. Facts about Random Acts of Kindness Day
