The KindnessKits Foundation

What is "The KindnessKits Foundation"? What is a  "KindnessKit"?

We are a non-profit foundation that allows anyone to get involved in helping the unhoused population by creating and distributing KindnessKits. Growing up, we have always found the concept of helping those less fortunate to be a significant value of ours, whether it be a result of our religion, Islam, or familial and moral values. As we have grown, our feelings towards this cause have only strengthened. An effective habit we have developed is carrying bags full of supplies ranging from socks to granola bars to be handed out to anyone in need, whether on a quick drive to school or a lengthy road trip. As the tradition progressed, the idea sparked to expand this concept, enhancing its impact, as the more people involved, the more effective it can be. After watching as our uncle had resiliently come back from time locked up, transitioning to working with Team Wellness and making a change in Detroit, we knew it was time for us to get involved. This has led us to where we are today. KindnessKits are the helpful care packages we referred to earlier. They enable individuals to aid people experiencing homelessness with confidence in what their donations are going toward, contrary to cash donations given to the unhoused population. All proceeds gathered from donations go toward purchasing supplies for KindnessKits. With your help, we can expand beyond what we have already done, so be sure to explore the site for our opportunities to contribute.
