The State of Kindness in America:
2026 Kindland Gallup Survey Results
What makes people more comfortable being kind to strangers? It may be simpler than you think: experiencing kindness themselves. New Gallup research coming out this Friday suggests that how we experience and witness kindness in our own lives relates not only to our motivation to be kind, but also to how kind we believe others are, and even how kind we think the country is overall. We’ll share the full story Friday, April 24th.
To establish kindness as a defining national value, leaving a legacy of unity that extends beyond America’s 250th anniversary.
The United States of Kindness challenges every person, organization, and community to participate in 250 acts of kindness, one for every year of our nation’s history. These acts can be large or small, but together, they form a movement that connects people and restores hope in what we share as Americans.
This is more than a campaign. It is a call to act with intention, to notice the good around us, and to celebrate kindness in every form. Each story and every act contributes to a shared goal: making kindness the cornerstone of America’s 250th year.
The United States of Kindness officially launches in 2026 with a collective challenge: 250 Acts of Kindness. Join us in creating a legacy of compassion and unity that defines America’s next chapter.

Acts can be big or small: helping a neighbor, thanking a teacher, mentoring a student, or giving back to your community. Every act counts. Share your story and inspire others to do the same. Together, we will show the world that kindness is America’s greatest strength.

Every act of kindness creates a ripple that spreads across communities and generations. Through the United States of Kindness campaign, we aim to inspire and document 250 million acts of kindness in 2026, reaching every corner of the nation.
