Call for Kindness

The Riley’s Way Call For Kindness invites young people (13 to 22) from across the country to submit a new or existing project rooted in Riley’s Way values—kindness, empathy, youth leadership, and inclusive community—that tackles anything from pressing equity and social justice issues to building meaningful connections in their school or community. This year, in addition to their general category, Riley's Way will be selecting up to 10 projects specifically focused on environmental justice to address the growing need for solutions in this critical space. Riley's Way will also support one award in a special dance and arts category, the Yuriko Kikuchi Arigato Award in honor of Yuriko, the pioneering dancer and choreographer. The deadline to apply is April 2, 2023.
