I Scream for kindness!

Karen Pez Weaver — Mon, 13 May 2013 14:40:00 +0000

Hello, my name is Zayn and I go to Bursley. For my kindness,I went to Coldstone Creamery to treat someone. When I got my own order, my mom said, “Would you like to talk to a customer,or the cashier?”

Then I said, “Definitely the cashier.” So after my parents paid for our ice cream, I said to the cashier, “Please put this in the next order .” Then I gave her the seven dollars in cash. She was frozen and then…she was smiles,smiles,smiles!

Then she said, “Thank you.” The best part is, I don’t even know who I did the kindness for.

DeVos Children’s Hospital Kindness….GREAT!

Hello! My name is Emily. For my kindness, I sold colored duct tape things like journals, folders, braclets, purses, wallets and bookmarks with my Rosewood friends, Evelyn, Madelyn, and Thalia. With the money we raised, we took it to the Helen DeVos Childrens’ Hospital. How much did we make? $150! So we went to the hospital and they gave us certificates with our names printed on them in navy blue cases with fake gold paint! Then they told us that they would use the money to buy craft kits for the children. They also told us that $150 can buy a lot of kits! They told us about some parts of the hospital. Then we had to take our certificates and go. We had tons of fun with the whole thing! It was WONDERFUL!!!! Emily

Caring Cards

My name is Avery. I am in third grade at Bauerwood School. I sent cards to people around me and far away. I sent one to my aunt and uncle in Iowa and to my friends in Illinois. It felt really good when I sent them out to the people far away and sick or close by. Maybe they will write back. I hope what I did brightened their days!

Hello, I am Jacob from Sandy Hill. We have some new neighbors whom we had not met yet. So, yesterday when I got home, we baked the Monster cookies. We went over too our neighbors house and sat there for 3 and 1/2 minutes. There weren’t there. We came back and were greeted by their scary dogs. Later they were home, and their names are Pat and Adrian. They were happy to be welcomed and they loved the cookies!

Cupcakes for Cancer

Hi my name is Ashley Winger. This last week I did a bake sale at my school to raise money for breast cancer research. We were very successful and raised about $204.62, and as you might know Mrs. Weaver’s friend will match anything we bring in so that doubled to $409.34! We had our bake sale for two days outside of the lunch room, and after the 3rd graders came on the second day we were sold out. We had about 500 treats to sell cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and cake pops. We raised it all for breast cancer research. We had a great bake sale and a great time!

Hi, it’s Maddie here, and I’m gonna tell you about my Act of Kindness. My grandpa has the blues for a while because he has cancer and he hasn’t seen me in 3 years. So I thought I might as well try to cheer him up. So for a month I sent him a card and email to get him out of the blues, and it did. Well, that’s how I cheered up my grandpa. BYE

Reading for the Animals

My name is Julia Harig, and I’m a 6th-grade student from Sandy Hill. For my ACT Kids Kindness my friend Kallie and I held a read-a-thon for the Humane Society of West Michigan. The reason we did this is because the Humane Society means so much to us and to those animals who deserve homes. I walked around my school, family, and the ECC, and Kallie asked her teachers and family, asking for pledges. During Spring Break we read 10 hours. In the end we raised $250.00 for the Humane Society. When we gave them the money Kallie wasn’t there, but the owner was very happy and thanked me and told her to thank Kallie.

Bake Sale for Torin

Karen Pez Weaver — Fri, 05 Apr 2013 15:07:49 +0000

My name is Cameron, and I go to Rosewood School. For my Act of Kindness I threw a bake sale for my cousin Torin. The reason I did this was because he has a disease called Phelan Mc-Dermid Syndrome which is a missing chromosome 22 by your spine. This is a disease that causes your muscles not to react as well as people’s muscles normally act. He can’t really talk, walk or grab things. All donations made from the bake sale will go toward therapy sessions for Torin.

My name is Jenna ,and I am in 5th grade at Bursley Elementary. For my kindness I made cookies for my 4th grade teacher Mrs.vanBiljion. I first went on Monday the 25th ,but she had a substitute. So, I went back the next day and she was there. I gave her the cookies and she asked me if it was for occasion ,and I said that it was random. I did not have the coin with me ,so I will give it to her later today.

Shoveling for Neighbors

Karen Pez Weaver — Wed, 27 Mar 2013 13:56:28 +0000

Hi, my name is Ella Lubberts. I am in Fifth Grade at Bursley. I have a brother named Connor who is in Third grade. For our kindness we decided to shovel our neighbors’ driveway. So I presented the idea when I went to ACT on Wednesday. They approved it, and when Connor and I got home from school we wrote a letter and since I forgot the coin at school I drew a coin and colored it. We shoveled the driveway at about 5:00, and when I was taking pictures it started to snow again. We thought we would shovel again, but by the time we got up in the morning the driveway had already been shoveled again.

Bye
