What is the Kindness Cookie Jar Project?

The Kindness Cookie Jar Project is a simple way to spread connection throughout our community. Each jar is filled with the ingredients to make a batch of cookies. The idea is simple: bake the cookies, enjoy some with your household, share some with someone else, log your jar online, refill the jar, and pass it along. 
​Whether you share cookies with a neighbor, friend, coworker, family member, or someone you just want to brighten the day for, every act of kindness helps strengthen our community!

How it Works

  1. You receive a Kindness Cookie Jar containing the dry ingredients for a batch of cookies.
    1. (plus an egg, butter, and vanilla from your home)
  2. Bake the cookies and enjoy half.
  3. Log your Jar using the QR Code on the lid. (or click the link HERE)
    1. ​​We'd love to know how far your jar has traveled, who you shared it with, and any stories or photos you'd like to share. 
  4. Refill the jar with the dry ingredients using the recipe provided.*
  5. Give the other half to a neighbor, friend, coworker, teacher, senior, first responder, or someone who could use a little kindness along with the refilled jar.
  6. Keep the kindness chain going!
