The more I read about how social media has become the new playground for bullying, the more inspired I felt to help spread kindness instead. Children were not only being bullied at school, but now had to deal with bullying long after they got home, because of social media. I came up with the idea of a kindness challenge so kids had a reason to turn to social media for a positive experience.

Thank you for joining the Race For Wellness!! Now the fun begins.  After all, it is called FUNdraising for a reason! Here are some great ways to fundraise for the Race with your teammates, friends, family and co-workers.

In a climate where kids are more anxious than ever, Project Happiness Global programs directly impact the lives of teens by equipping them with the skills for emotional resilience and greater positivity.  Last school year, we worked with Life’s Good Electronics to create Project Happiness Clubs in 10 schools and we are happy to announce the expansion of that program this year to 30 schools.

From a young age, Nate Dolan knew there was something wrong, something was off just a little, not enough to be noticed by others, but enough that he struggled with it. Now, at the age of 38, Dolan has come to manage his struggles and has discovered a way to help others like him.

But I did take notice when, as we were lining up in the aisle to deplane, one of the boys smiled at me and handed me a folded up napkin. In truth, I almost tossed it away without unfolding it. But as I strode towards the exit, I indulged my curiosity. And found myself speechless.

I believe that over the ages, through the passing of time. We have lost two incredibly important characteristics. I think that if we were to regain these two simple things, our lives would become so much better than they are, and we would be able to survive the storm that rages in our minds. The best part is that one of them leads to the other.

The Project Happiness Key Club 'Rake-a-Thon' was a huge success. The Dearborn High School students showed great spirit and their community members were very appreciative!
