About us
Welcome to Acts of Kindness – Chapel Hill (A K - CH). I am Chloe Buchholtz, a junior at Carrboro High School in North Carolina and am passionate about encouraging simple and organized acts of kindness. Being kind is one of the very best things we can be. I founded A K Chapel Hill, a North Carolina 501(c)(3) non-profit, to foster kindness.
A K - CH started by handing out bottles of water and dollars to people without shelter as well as delivering gratitude balloons and baked goods to local emergency rooms. We then progressed to raising funds for other worthy causes that address homelessness, food scarcity and mental health.
In the current climate of the world, kindness has never been more important. Let’s spread kindness as a way of thinking and acting toward others and ourselves.
Here are ways we are practicing and encouraging Acts of Kindness everyday.
