Our Story

In January 2014, Leigh Rosanoski wrote a short, one-off post about kindness on her Facebook page. She continued to do so every week. Six months later, inspired by the transformational power of kindness and her vision of a kinder world, she launched a kindness movement with 1,000 kindness cards and her Kiwi can-do attitude.

The Kind Hearts Movement contiuned to grow and in 2016 became a charitable Trust, focussed on the vision of a kinder world with a sense of purpose to empower individuals and groups to strengthen communities through unconditional kindness.

Kind Hearts currently have four initiatives that support the vision and purpose of the trust. They are Kind Hearts in Education, Kind Hearts for Parents, Kind Hearts in Business and Kind Hearts Coffee.

Our team of volunteers see every day as a kindness day which brings infinite possibilities to change lives and create a kinder world.
