Keeping Kindness Going All Year Long
Christmas Kindness brings neighbors together in Plainfield, Illinois, and surrounding communities to share thoughtful gestures, support community organizations, and remind people they matter. From handwritten notes to our annual 12 Days of Christmas Kindness, there is room for everyone to be part of something good.
Small Acts. Big Impact. Brighter Community.
Kindness starts with all of us!
The 12 Days of Christmas Kindness Are Coming Back!
Sometimes making someone's day a little brighter starts with something as simple as a handwritten note.
At a recent community event in Plainfield, neighbors joined us to write thoughtful cards that will be shared with local seniors and others throughout our community. It's a simple example of what Christmas Kindness is all about — people coming together, each contributing a little, to make a meaningful difference.
Now we're gearing up for our 2026 12 Days of Christmas Kindness, and we'd love for you to be part of it!
We're inviting local businesses and families to help sponsor our December kindness initiatives, while welcoming community members of all ages to participate, volunteer, contribute, or simply help spread the word.
Because when everyone does a little, together we can do a lot.
Why Kindness Matters
You do not need a big budget or a special occasion to make someone feel remembered.
A short note, a few donated supplies, or time spent with a neighbor can change the tone of someone’s day. We create approachable ways for those small efforts to add up.
Encouragement
Handwritten cards, simple surprises, and thoughtful gestures that remind others they’re seen, valued, and loved — especially when they need it most.
Kindness All Year
From our 12 Days of Christmas Kindness to everyday acts of giving, we believe generosity shouldn’t be seasonal.
Kindness belongs in every season.
Caring For All
Whether it’s a neighbor, senior, family, or local organizations — every act of compassion matters. Together, we create a community where everyone feels cared for and included.
