The Kindness Movement — Matthew 25:40
In every city in America, people of every faith, and those of no professed faith, are feeding the hungry, sheltering the stranger, and lifting the fallen. They call it by different names, but they are all doing the same thing — lighting the way for us to create a society that becomes the light itself.
We can do this together in kindness — join them in creating the world we want.
WE CARE DAY — June 25, 2026
Join Us for a
National Day of Prayer for Discernment
On the 25th — our day — we pause together.
Every faith. Every heart. One intention.
That we may see clearly and act with kindness.
One world. One people.
"Every religion has its version of Matthew 25:40 — 'What you do for the least of humanity, you do for me.' The Quran calls it sadaqah. The Torah calls it tzedakah. The Sikhs call it seva. Hindus call it dharma. What all of them share is this — kindness toward the least of these is not a suggestion. It is the point. This is one world. One people. United by our shared humanity and our desire to see more lights shining, each in their own way, toward a future of acceptance and hospitality."
Five places where the dream is already one building
They are all doing the same thing — lighting the way for us to create a kinder, more just society.
Columbia, SC
Interfaith Partners of South Carolina
They made unity official. SC Interfaith Harmony Month — declared by the governor. Every faith. One purpose.
St. Louis, MO
Interfaith Partnership of Metro St. Louis
After Ferguson, in the streets together. After floods, on the ground together. Unity of cause proven under pressure since 1969.
Seattle, WA
Interfaith Community Sanctuary
Every faith running a day shelter together. Every door open. Every day. Not a metaphor — a building on a street in Seattle.
Richmond, VA
Interfaith Council of Greater Richmond
75 congregations. Eight traditions. Not worshipping together — working together. Since 1968. TKM before TKM had a name.
Omaha, NE
Tri-Faith Initiative
A mosque, a synagogue, and a church — on the same campus, by design. The only one in America. Sharing land, service, humanity.
The 25th of every month
WE CARE DAY
One act of kindness
that feels good to both of you.
You know that feeling when you help someone out —
kindness begets kindness
and you recognize it.
See a need. Fill a need.
We recognize evil as evil — and we counter evil by doing good, which uplifts us all instead of dragging us down in conflict. Our flocks are many faces of good will at TKM, but we all share a common thread — we care. And that care now has a way to be recognized and manifested by example. Actions illuminate truth over words, and now it's time to let our light shine, attracting birds of a feather you'd fit right in with. Won't you join us?
We believe in Matthew 25:40. Join us. — The Kindness Movement
Lights shining across America
Every tradition. Every city. The same light illuminating the darkness with compassion and assistance. These are not just examples to follow — they would welcome your time and support of their mission.
California — Fresno
Sikh Council of Central California
Langar in the Central Valley fields — feeding farmworkers in one of the most food-insecure regions in America. Seva among the people who feed the nation. Matthew 25:40 with a turban on.
Sikh — Seva & LangarNew York — New York City
Met Council on Jewish Poverty
Last year they served over 450,000 New Yorkers. Food, housing, home care, energy assistance — for anyone in need. That number is not a typo. Tikkun olam at American scale.
Jewish — Tikkun OlamPennsylvania — Pittsburgh
Sikh Satsang of Pittsburgh
After the Tree of Life shooting in 2018, Sikh families were among the first to arrive — with food and a langar table. They fed people. That is seva. That is Sarbat da Bhala.
Sikh — Seva in CrisisOregon — Portland
Masjid As-Saber
North Portland's anchor mosque. Food pantry, community assistance, youth programs. Zakat serving the people the system forgot — quietly, consistently, for decades.
Islamic — Zakat & SadaqahPennsylvania — Philadelphia
Jewish Family & Children's Service
Since 1855. 170 years of tikkun olam in the City of Brotherly Love. The name of the city and the mission of this organization are the same thing.
Jewish — Tikkun OlamTexas — Houston
Islamic Society of Greater Houston
Over 890 families receive food, rent, utilities and transportation support every month. In 2024, $4.9 million in zakat distributed. In Islam, that is not charity — that is justice.
Islamic — Zakat as JusticeBecome a light
Every member gets a member # — but you are not just a number. You are a founding member of a movement that is going to change the world. Idaho #1 was first. Your state is waiting for its first light to help our movement grow, so grab your number and let your light shine.
