DIVISIONAL PROJECT:

RIPPLE OF KINDNESS Have you heard of the ripple? It is a small wave or series of waves on the surface of the water, caused by an object dropping into it.

Similarly, a single act of kindness can create a chain reaction, spreading positivity and inspiring further acts of kindness. Just like a small pebble dropped into water creates ripples that extend outward, acts of kindness can have a similar effect on individuals and communities.

Our goal is to make the world a better place through service. In doing so, we grow as individuals and as leaders by answering the call to lead, summoning the courage to engage and developing the heart to serve. By engaging in acts of kindness, we not only uplift others but also contribute to a more compassionate and connected world.

MONTHLY CHALLENGE INSTRUCTIONS

Scan the QR code and submit the form after completing each challenge!

Prizes will be given to the most active participants, and any Key Clubbers (officers+members) in our division are encouraged to participate.
