Action for Happiness 

August 2026: Altruistic August – Happier, Kinder, Together

Welcome to Altruistic August, a month-long kindness challenge created by Action for Happiness to inspire simple, meaningful acts of compassion each day. This calendar encourages us to strengthen our connections with others, practice gratitude, and make a positive difference in our school and community with one small action at a time. Research shows that acts of kindness can improve well-being, reduce stress, and help build stronger, more supportive relationships. 

We invite all students, families, and staff to join us in completing one daily act of kindness throughout the month. There is no right or wrong way to participate, choose the activities that fit your day and notice how even small actions can brighten someone's life, including your own.

If you'd like to explore more kindness calendars, well-being resources, and practical ideas for building happiness every day, visit the official Action for Happiness website (click here). 

Together, let's make August a month of compassion, connection, and positive change. Kindness is contagious, let's spread it one day at a time! 💙🌱
