Welcome to:

As parents, educators, and citizens, we want our children to grow up in a kinder, more compassionate world, and that starts with practicing compassion at an early age.

About the Challenge

Our communities need compassion now more than ever, and a simple act of kindness can make all the difference to someone who needs it. The Compassion Project and EVERFI are calling on teachers, parents, and students to demonstrate compassion in your community — and share your story with us!

How It Works

Families are invited to complete three steps by June 15:

  1. Step 1.
    Complete at least one lesson of The Compassion Project with your child (each lesson takes 10 minutes). Get started here.

  2. Step 2.
    Demonstrate compassion to someone in your community. Get your whole family involved! Get inspired by the examples below.
  3. Step 3.
    Share your story on social media along with photos and videos. Use the hashtags #SeeCareDo and #CompassionProject and be sure to tag @EVERFIK12 and your elementary school or district.

Prizes

The three elementary schools with the most submissions will each receive a $1000 donation to fund school supplies next fall. Enter by June 15, 2020 to qualify. Even if your school is closed for the year, you can still participate and help your school earn points!

Compassion is when you...

SEE
someone in need.

CARE
about their feelings.

DO
something to show you care.

What Teachers Are Saying

“In times like these, I feel the need to spread kindness, patience, and compassion. Our students are in a unique position to do the same in their homes and in their neighborhoods. EVERFI’s
The Compassion Project was a great program my students were using before this pandemic happened, and I can see the benefits continuing outside the four walls of our classroom.”
