walk for a kinder world - Wednesday 13th November
pledge to walk for a kinder world
Across the globe we are witnessing an ever-increasing amount of anxiety, bullying, depression, helplessness and dysregulation.
Suicide is the leading cause of death among our Australian youth.
1 in 7 primary school students has a mental health issue.
1 in 6 high school students report serious thoughts of suicide.
However, kindness saves lives so it’s time to pledge to be kind.
Help us spread kindness and put an end to bullying, loneliness, mental health issues and suicide with the annual “walk for a kinder world” event on World Kindness Day, or a day that suits you.
Your walk could be a walk down your garden path, a walk around the playground, a hike through the bush, a stroll through the city or a run along the beach. You could get family and friends to join you or set up a team in your workplace.
Make a difference at home, in your workplace or at school by simply making a $10 pledge to be kind and taking a walk. Your pledge can be made on the b kinder foundation’s walk for a kinder world platform.
Pledge to take action, come together with others and take a stand to make the world a kinder place.
Your $10 donation will spread kindness by providing a primary school student with their own b kinder workbook, a unique and interactive learning tool which initiates discussions surrounding emotions that can be difficult for the young to communicate. This highly effective kindness resource has been shown to reduce mental health issues, bullying and suicide.
Everybody can take a stand and make a difference just by being kind.

schools & organisations
We would love for schools to join us and take the pledge to be kind. Schools can sign up and make just one pledge for the whole school for $10.
Workplaces are encouraged to set up a "team" and ask every team member to pledge individually at $10 each. This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with peers, family and friends, while helping to create a kinder world.
If schools and businesses would like to raise funds for the b kinder foundation, donations can also be made on the walk for a kinder world site or our website.

Arndell shows us how
Check out this amazing video from Arndell Anglican College on their walk for a kinder world last year. This video gives schools ideas on how their students can be involved and participate. Please note that the school only needs to pledge $10 for the whole school, but we would love for everyone to be involved. It's a perfect well-being exercise with kindness as a common goal.
