2021-2022 Kind Coins for Peru
Students helped bring laptops to students in a remote village in Peru.
136 students and 6 teachers now have laptops, can resume schooling and have access to additional educational resources.
Claudia made a wish to get laptops for children in a neighboring Peruvian town. The children of El Guyabo were not able to attend online school during the pandemic because they did not have the technology. Claudia wanted to do something about this, so she enlisted the help of kids around the world.
Students participating in The Great Kindness Challenge heard her wish, collected money, and made the wish come true! This uplifting video shares the joy of the 136 students who received those laptops.
When we all work together, we can make big things happen! Kindness matters!

2018 Kind Coins for Hurricane Relief Campaign
Students built playgrounds in response to the devastating 2017 hurricane season.
Leading with kindness and compassion, the students & families who participated in The Great Kindness Challenge wanted to help. The idea of building new playgrounds at schools in hurricane-impacted communities in Texas, Puerto Rico and Florida was born. More than 80,000 students participated in this campaign and demonstrated how everybody has a role to play in creating a kinder world. Hasbro, Inc., through its BE FEARLESS BE KIND philanthropic initiative, matched the funds raised, to ensure all playgrounds could become a reality.

Thanks to the extraordinary students from 157 schools, the Kids for Peace school and peace center was officially opened in October 2017. Since then, over 350 students have been enjoying this beautiful peace-centered school.
2015 – 2016 Kind Coins for Kenya Campaign
