2026 Kindness Week
1st Annual Acts of Kindness Week Fundraiser - Kindness Starts With Me
This year, Starkweather PTO is excited to launch our 1st Annual Acts of Kindness Week Fundraiser — Kindness Starts With Me!
Our goal is simple: encourage our Wolves to make a positive difference through acts of kindness while helping raise funds that directly support the Starkweather school community.
Throughout Kindness Week, students will be challenged to complete acts of kindness connected to each day’s theme — from being kind to themselves and their families, to caring for their Wolfpack, their school, and the greater community.
Friends and family can support a student by choosing one day, multiple days, or even the entire week to sponsor. For each day they select, sponsors can make a donation and choose an act of kindness that matches that day’s theme for their Wolf to complete. In return, our students will “pay it forward” by spreading kindness throughout the week!
Together, we hope to raise $20,000 for the Starkweather PTO. Funds raised help make so many of the special experiences our students and families enjoy possible, including assemblies, field trips, family events, teacher appreciation events and gifts, school beautification projects, student activities, and so much more.
This fundraiser is about more than reaching a financial goal. It is about showing our children that even the smallest acts of kindness can have a meaningful impact.
Kindness Starts With Me — and together, our Wolfpack can make a difference!

Teddy,
There’s an old Chinese expression: 日行一善 (ri xing yi shan). It means “do a good deed every day.” Today you must clean your room to Mom’s specifications.
Best of luck,
Uncle Mikey

Ev you are the kindest goddaughter — we love you!
Love you Char
Ollie, you are the ultimate sports guru and team player! This day I challenge you to take another kid under your wing who might be feeling less confident than you and give them some of your amazing OlliePop energy. I know your attention and friendship would mean so much to them because you’re coolest kid out there and an all around all star. Go Ollie go!!!! I love you!
Teddy, my sweet godchild and master of all things sneaky and goofy. You are such a wonderful help to your mom and dad and very giving of your time and energy, which is such a rare and admirable trait in someone so young. I truly applaud you for it! But this week, I want you to take time to do something kind for yourself as well! What do you like to do to relax and reenergize? Think about this and make sure you carve out some time in the day for it :) I love you!!
As the oldest child, remember how much impact you have on your siblings. They want to be just like you!! Thank goodness you are a kind, inquisitive, and generally just wonderful. I love you, Max!
Dear Max, don’t hate me for this. Lol BUT your parents work so hard for you guys and they would be SO happy and impressed if you got up from the dinner table one night and washed the pots and pans, wiped down the counters, and loaded the dishwasher with everyone’s plates and silverware. It can be so satisfying for you to know you contributed to a clean house! Trust me - you’ll feel good when you spread kindness! :)
Hi Teddy! Aunt T here - I know you are kind and helpful at home, but maybe someone at school on the playground is feeling lonely! If you see someone who might be looking a little lonely or left out at lunch or recess, ask them to join in and talk about the things you love to do! Maybe they like the same shows or also have younger siblings! It would make their day and make you feel so good inside knowing you made someone happy :)
Ollie! This is your chance to surprise your mom and tata and help with something around the house…maybe if your little sister makes a mess by accident, you can clean it up without anyone asking! After all, families take care of eachother! They would be so impressed!
This is a good challenge for you Teddy! You're a great friend already- show others how to be a great friend too!
Healthy snacks only! I bet your siblings would love some too;-)
Ollie, you are a born leader and helper. Lead by example and clean up a space without Mommy and Tata asking you- I bet your siblings would be really impressed and proud:)
We love you, Maxy!
We love you, Spaghet!
We love you, Ollie pop!
