Katy, a 9th grader from Basic High School in Henderson understands kindness. Talking with her was so refreshing. One would think she has a PhD in kindness. She shared many insights about her school and is thrilled to tell everyone she can about The Kindness Certificates on this website. She was so happy to learn that I was “putting her in charge” to spread kindness to all of Nevada. Thank you so much Katy and keep it up the rest of your life.
Robby and his grandmother, who has had a lifetime in the education field thought it was imperative that he learn about Heroes by talking with me. I loved hearing her story of working in the education system. She still has some active connections and is going to spread the word.
City of Henderson Fire Chief, Steven Goble and all of his men had such great words of praise for The Kindness Bicycle Ride for Heroes. I talked with them before lining up for the Saint Patrick’s Day parade. I received an invitation to visit all of their Firehouses. What a wonderful honor.
The winds returned to southern Nevada, with frequent 50 mph wind gusts which made riding downright dangerous. I’m nearly right on the mileage total with the two “century” rides thus far.
“Spring Kindness” begins in three days. The object is to tell as many people about One Million Acts Of Kindness as you possibly can. This idea of “Springing Kindness” into people’s lives is being spread in big ways by culinary philanthropist, Spring Hope of Santa Monica, California.

Bogart is my travel companion on The Kindness Bus Tour for the next ten years. We will be on the road traveling to campuses across the country. Bogart is a eight year old Boston Terrier. He is a great people dog... he loves meeting new people. I am Bogart's fourth owner in his short 8 years of life... Not because of him but because his three previous owner's lifestyles changed after they took him in... Lucky for me!! Bogart is the luckiest, most spoiled dog on the face of the earth. He loves the bus and he loves to travel. Please come and visit him when we are on your campus.
The Blue Bird Corporation donated this amazing bus to One Million Acts of Kindness, allowing us the continue this initiative. It has been painted to closely resemble the original Kindness Bus. It will last well beyond the ten years of this mission. A very big thank you to Blue Bird from Bob Votruba and Bogart too!!
The original Kindness bus has been donated to a professor at Virginia Tech who will use it on campus and at schools in the Blacksburg area. The Kindness Bus will continue to inspire and comfort residents, students and visitors in that area for years to come.
One Million Acts Of Kindness is a goal. A goal for each person to individually perform One Million Acts Of Kindness in their life. Can you imagine a greater goal for one's life? It is a constant mind-set of kindness every day of your life for the next fifty-five years. Doing for others and kindness in your heart for everyone. It is my wish that you will dedicate your life to a charity... finding the passion in your heart for something or someone in need.
As a father of three college age kids I am concerned for the world in which all kids will live. A great way to create a safer, more caring world is for everyone to start their lifetime goal of One Million Acts Of Kindness. So I bought a bus, had about sixty family members, friends and neighbors help paint it and began a ten year journey with my Boston Terrier, Bogart, to college campuses across the country hoping to convince as many of you as possible about this much needed movement for this world. I love you guys too much to sit back and not do anything about this. Let's start a kindness movement in this country today to change the direction this world is headed!! You are the change that this world needs.
