Join the Eleanor Roosevelt Center and the Be a Friend Project for a youth event focused on bullying prevention, kindness, and allyship on the grounds of Val-Kill, Eleanor Roosevelts home.
Young people of all ages are invited to come together and stand up against bullying! The event will feature a variety of fun and empowering activities, including kindness crafts, guest speakers, and the Be a Friend Projects Friend Mail letter-writing campaign to show support for children who are currently experiencing bullying. There will also be an opportunity to help set a record for the largest community kindness pledge in Dutchess County!
The Day of Kindness is centered on values Eleanor Roosevelt held close: empathy, compassion, and standing up for others. Bring a picnic and spend the afternoon raising awareness about bullying prevention and the importance of kindness.
