Introducing the Kindness Cup!

World Kindness Day is here again, shining a light on the good deeds in our communities that bind us together. 

So what better day could there be to launch our brand-new initiative – The Kindness Cup! ???  Created in partnership with our friends at Bank Australia, we’d love you to help us celebrate the little acts of kindness that make the world a better place. 

2020 has been one hell of a year (#understatement), but often when the going gets tough, the best parts of humanity shine through. We want to share these stories of hope and kindness, to champion the everyday heroes doing their best for their community, the planet or a cause close to their heart.

Maybe you know someone who has organised a community compost or garden, or they regularly pick up litter. Maybe they sewed pouches for animals injured in the bushfires. Maybe your kid’s teacher went over and above during lockdown, or your friend baked cupcakes for their elderly neighbours. No act of kindness is too small – the ripple effect of small everyday actions, can create a wave of change!

Head to the link below to read more about The Kindness Cup, the exciting prizes to be won (including handcrafted ‘Kindness Cups’ from Brisbane ceramicist and artist Bonnie Hislop) and to nominate someone who you think deserves some recognition now!
