ABOUT ONE MILLION A.O.K.

The goal of One Million AOK is to document over 1,000,000 random acts of kindness from our nation’s youth. To achieve this goal we are going to challenge students across the nation to accomplish something they will never forget! The AOK program opens with an extravagant, empowering, and inspirational speech given by Brian Williams. . .this is no ordinary speech. Brian will be doing high flying kicks, back flips, dancing, and will end with an amazing brick breaking routine. Children will learn that one simple act of kindness can help someone break through any obstacle in life. One simple act of kindness can cause a ripple that impacts the lives of millions. . . and with this in mind . . . we give them a challenge.

Each school will be given a two week supply of AOK journals, one journal for each student. Each journal will allow a child to document 10 random acts of kindness, anything from holding a door open to planting a tree. No act is too small to document.

Though simple acts of kindness, the AOK program will empower kids to seek out ways to make another person’s day a little bit brighter for nothing in return. Each school will ignite an atomic bomb of kindness within their community. Children will be asked to constantly think about ways to make someone’s day just a little bit brighter.

We all know what it feels like to have someone let us take the last parking spot or allow us to cut in line. Through simple acts of kindness, children will begin to realize the effects of their actions on other people. In the end, everyone wins.
