Thanks to the generosity of The Carlsbad Charitable Foundation, Kids for Peace is once again hosting our free, monthly, intergenerational event – The Grandfriends Kindness Project – and we would love for you to join us!
From September 2024 – June 2025, local area youth and seniors are invited to come together to complete acts of kindness together. One or more Kids for Peace representatives will be at every event as well as some of our high school interns and youth from Kids for Peace chapters to help facilitate the activities.
It certainly helps us plan if you can sign up to let us know you are coming, but please know that all are welcome even if you have not signed up!
Thanks so much for your help in making this beautiful program a success!!!
The Grandfriends Kindness Project is a yearlong intergenerational program that connects younger and older Carlsbad citizens, offering an uplifting opportunity to work together to create a culture of kindness, courtesy and connection.
Both youth and seniors are suffering from anxiety, depression and isolation.
US Surgeon General Murthy declared that we are living through an “epidemic of loneliness.” To address this epidemic, Dr. Murthy stated that we must “cultivate values of kindness, respect, service and commitment to one another.” That’s exactly what we’re doing!
