The Cool 2Be Kind campaign is an initiative of the Winnipeg Police Association and focuses on teaching youth in grades K-8 (Winnipeg schools) the value of being kind.

Entering our seventh year, this positive behavior, anti-bullying initiative outlines the benefits of being kind to others and making good choices in school and in life. Students and staff are invited to create and submit a unique kindness proposal for their school with the opportunity to receive funding in the amount of $500 to see their program come to life.

Since 2013, Cool 2Be Kind has funded 145 school kindness projects totalling $72,500. Our off-duty police officers have spoken to over 50,000 students and educators. With the generous support of our sponsors, we are making a real difference by spreading kindness and helping to reduce the incidences of bullying in schools and online.

Register your Cool 2Be Kind school project to be eligible to receive a grant of $500. Cool 2Be Kind school projects should help teach K - 8 students the values and benefits of kindness to others. Your school project may be a one-time event or an ongoing program, however, must be completed during the school year. You may also incorporate the Cool 2Be Kind message and theme into existing anti-bullying projects which are also eligible for funding. All school project submissions will be considered. You will be notified within two-weeks after the December 31, 2018 Kindness project submission deadline.

Limit one Kindness project per school. Winnipeg schools only.

Registration is now closed.
