In 2012, Jill McManigal initiated the Great Kindness Challenge with her kids in her own backyard. The challenge is taken by schools and youth groups who aim to do as many acts of kindness they can in a week. Now, the challenge has superseded the local level, and has participants from over 12,000 schools and more than 10 millions students throughout the US. To see more about the challenge, head to ABC to watch the featured video.
