Inside Out Club launches 15-day Kindness Challenge
Participants across the community take on 15 kind acts in 15 days
This summer, Inside Out Club encouraged families and individuals to put away the pedometers and pick up some positivity with the launch of the 15K-indness Challenge — a community-wide initiative inviting participants to complete 15 kind acts in 15 days.
The challenge officially kicked off on June 15 and runs through July 15, sparking acts of kindness toward others, themselves, animals, and the planet. From writing uplifting notes to friends and neighbors to taking time for self-care or helping the environment, participants of all ages are taking meaningful steps to live “Inside Out.”
What participants received
Each participating family received a Kindness Kit that included:
• A Kindness yard sign to spread positivity
• A Kind act tracking sheet with a checklist of ideas
• A kickoff craft, sharing Kindness with others
• Kindness postcards to send
• Encouragement throughout the challenge from the Inside Out Club team
• A sweet treat or fun goody as a prize upon completion
“Kindness is powerful. We launched this challenge to create a fun and accessible way for families to connect and grow through service and empathy,” said Marion Ruthig, founder of Inside Out Club DuPage. “We’re already seeing the impact ripple through communities.”
Who joined in
The challenge welcomed over 60 kids from 31 families across 7 different cities, all committed to spreading kindness in their communities.
It’s not too late
Even if you didn’t register, Inside Out Club encourages everyone to take time this summer to show kindness — toward others, animals, themselves, and the planet. There’s no wrong time to make a positive impact.

Participants have until July 15 to submit their completed kindness tracker to receive a prize and be recognized for completing the challenge.
