Join 7 Cups and Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation for the #BeKind21 Challenge
It takes 21 days to establish a habit, so let's work together to spread kindness around the world!
7 Cups' mission is to empower people to make the world a more empathetic, kinder place, so we are extremely excited to join Lady Gaga and the Born This Way Foundation to participate in #BeKind21 campaign from September 1st - 21st!
Why #BeKind21 and When?
Inspired by the idea that habits are formed by repeating an activity for 21 consecutive days, the challenge calls on participants to practice an act of kindness each day from September 1st to September 21st.
How to participate
Our company and community will be coming together to spread acts of kindness to others (as well as to the self). We've created the below list of daily ideas, or, feel free to use the blank calendar to write your own activities in. Need more inspiration? See this article for ideas on acts of kindness for seniors.
Please join us in our #BeKind21 community and/or by tagging us on social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn) with any of your #BeKind21 acts of kindness.
Bonus: those who pledge here are entered to win Lady Gaga tickets!
