Sunmark Foundation Commences Summer of Kindness

The Sunmark Charitable Community Foundation commenced its fourth annual Summer of Kindness, completing three Kindness Projects in May and June. With plans to complete seven more projects throughout July and August, Sunmark is inviting children up to age 12 to participate and “deposit kindness” by submitting ideas of how they would spread kindness in their local communities. Throughout the summer, a Kindness Crew comprised of Foundation members and Sunmark staff will work to bring selected ideas to life. To submit an idea or learn more, visit sunmark.org/kindness or email kindness@sunmark.org.

What is your favorite quote?

"Sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it.” - We Bought A Zoo


Favorite Foundation initiative so far?

Our Office Games fundraiser event. Seeing staff bring out that competitive but silly spirit to raise funds for the athletes created a very special bond between our two organizations.


Where is the best concert you've ever attended?

The Raging Idiots in Boston.


What would be the title of your autobiography?

“I Can’t, We Have a Game” because of all of the sports that my 3 children play, it keeps us very busy!
