Stories Matter: #BeKind21 In Conversation

On Wednesday, September 4, 2019 Born This Way Foundation, Verizon Media, and BUILD, co-hosted Stories Matter: #BeKind21 In Conversation. The event was part of Born This Way Foundation’s #BeKind21 campaign which invites the public to build a habit of kindness – to themselves as well as to others. The purpose of the event was to bring the importance of this campaign to life by showcasing the impact that kindness can have – when we practice it and when we receive it – on our lives, particularly on our mental and emotional being. People shared and discussed personal stories that serve as examples of the power of kindness – learning to be kind to yourself, understanding how to be kind to others, and becoming comfortable with accepting kindness that’s offered to you.
