Evelyn’s Ways to Be Kind


November 28, 2024

In January 2023, my 9-year-old daughter Evelyn created a list of ways to spread kindness. Tragically, her mission was cut short when a shooter attacked her Nashville elementary school just two months later.

This holiday season, I invite you to honor Evelyn’s vision by choosing one act from her list—because even small gestures can make a big difference in our world.

How to Participate:

  1. Choose one of Evelyn’s acts of kindness to complete with your family, friends, or on your own.
  2. Acts of kindness can transform us in ways we didn’t expect. If you feel comfortable, share a video of your act on social media.
  3. Tag @voices4safertn on Instagram or Voices for a Safer Tennessee on Facebook, and use #EvelynsKindnessMission to inspire others.

Together, let’s create a ripple of kindness that reaches far and wide.
