Project Description

Our mission is to inspire Positive Kids Today, for a Positive World Tomorrow. We aim to accomplish this by supporting children in developing positive and healthy mindsets. Some of the resources we provide are:

• Series of Children’s Books

• Preschool/Elementary Curriculum

• Children’s Mobile App

The goal of the PositiveKidsToday Kindness Project is to distribute copies of our children’s book, The Hand Hug, and accompanying curriculum to underserved schools throughout the country.

The Black community suffers from an increased rate of mental health concerns, including anxiety and depression. Sadly, mental health can be a difficult subject to discuss. According to the Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health, only one in three black adults who need mental health care receive it.

This is why PositiveKidsToday aims to address this need in children as young as 4 years old, as it is never too early to talk about the importance of mental health.

The Hand Hug is an inspirational story about a young black girl, who is experiencing worrisome thoughts. This beautiful story addresses topics such as Anxiety, Mindfulness, Gratitude, Kindness and Positivity.

Our children’s book also includes a teacher’s guide and student workbook that will support teachers in ensuring their students are making the most out of the lessons taught in The Hand Hug.

Funding will cover the costs of materials to print and ship our children’s book and curriculum to underserved communities throughout the United States. Costs associated include:

• costs to print and ship children’s books (each school will receive 1 hard copy and 4 soft copies)

• cost to print and ship our Teacher’s Guide and Student Workbook (each school will receive binder hard copy, and pdf copy to allow them to print additional copies for their classrooms)

• Packaging as our Children’s Book and curriculum will be packaged together for easy local hand delivery and shipping 

Our goal is to donate this invaluable resource to 500 classrooms throughout the United States by Christmas 2020.

Our team is compromised of a mother and daughter team passionate about helping our children develop positive mindsets.

Thank you for joining our mission to inspire positive kids today, for a positive world tomorrow!
