KINDSOMNIA Took Over Vegas! Kids LOVED It!
On
Saturday, more than 2,500 Las Vegas students representing all 59 Southern
Nevada middle schools were up all night, all in the name of being Kind. Hosted
by the Josh Stevens Foundation, KINDSOMNIA was back for its third year.
KINDSOMNIA
is designed to be a life-changing event during which middle school students
celebrate and practice acts of Kindness. The evening begins with a “Kindness
rally” led by Drew Stevens, founder, Josh Stevens Foundation. He will discuss
ways to incorporate Kindness into everyday life and how to create a legacy to
be proud of. With this newfound or reinforced knowledge, the students begin
their adventure for the evening. Throughout the night, they will be challenged
to reach out and make new friends, be Kind to each other and catch one another
in the act of being Kind.
Students
spent the evening at numerous, adventure-packed attractions throughout Southern
Nevada including AdventureDome, paintballing, Skymania, Cosmic Bowling, and
extreme obstacle courses. The evening began with the Kindness rally. From
there, they were transported by bus to all locations and supervised not only by
a group of Foundation staff members, but also nearly 300 adult and parent
volunteers. The students returned by 7 a.m. on Sunday.
The
turn-out of nearly 2,500 students represented a 40 percent increase over 2013’s
attendance.
WHO: Founded
in 2008, the Josh Stevens Foundation’s mission is to recognize and reward a
child’s heartfelt Kind act and to inspire kids to be more Kind, more often.
Genuine Kindness born in the heart of a child deserves celebration. One month
before Josh’s 13th birthday, he lost his life in a tragic accident in September
2008. Amongst his friends, family and community, he was known as a person who
was Kind and often did good deeds for others. He left a legacy of Kindness that
lives on today through the work of the foundation. To date, nearly 90,000
Kindness cards and 300,000 “Be Kind” t-shirts with various slogans have been
printed and distributed.
