Spring Hope is a partner in kindness in our annual “Spring into Kindness” on the first day of spring each year. She is always up to all kinds of goodness all year long.
Spring is a retired military veteran who bought all of these fine animals since January 2016 to veterans of our country. She helps support the Spring into Kindness Campaign established in 2012. Every first day of Spring, she’s at the Santa Monica Pier with free bouquets and fortune cookies.
Some of the greatest moments on my journey are when I come across individuals who have seen or heard of our mission. We have a big connect with firefighters and law-enforcement across the country. One of my cross country bicycle rides raise awareness for these role models. I had to stop at this firehouse at Boca Grande, Florida knowing we had been seen previously.
Thank you to Cub Scout pack 530 from Vero Beach, Florida for taking the One Million Acts Of Kindness pledge. Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and children’s groups across the nation are taking part in this lifelong pledge.

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.
