The Healing Tree Foundation Launches The Kindness Cure Campaign

Nov. 6, 2008 - PRLog -- The Healing Tree Foundation’s Kindness Cure Campaign is a groundbreaking national event during which founder CJ Scarlet will spread kindness to one million people in one year, beginning on World Kindness Day on Nov. 13, 2008.  The goal of The Kindness Cure Campaign is to teach others how simple it is to spread kindness and generosity through simple gestures and volunteer activities.  The main component of the project consists of 365 daily acts of kindness performed by Scarlet, which will be digitally recorded for use by the media and on her social networking website, www.thekindnesscure.org.   At the conclusion of the project, the Foundation will offer funding to programs that advance the values of generosity and kindness at the local, national, and international levels.

“Things are so bad in the world right now and people feel discouraged, but negativity only makes our problems worse” explained CJ Scarlet, founder of The Kindness Cure Campaign and President of The Healing Tree Foundation.  “I am starting a kindness revolution to inspire people to become part of the solution by inviting them to practice generosity toward one another—things like honoring our teachers and fire fighters, and delivering hope and flowers to hospital patients—small acts that make a big difference.”

Scarlet learned about the power of kindness the hard way.  In 2002, she was told that her long-term disability had become life threatening, and her world fell apart.  Then a Tibetan Lama told her to “stop feeling sorry for herself and focus on the happiness of others” and her life was transformed.  Amazingly, her condition went into remission.  “Kindness literally cured me,” Scarlet declared.  The Lama next commanded Scarlet to share the secrets to happiness she learned with the world.  The Kindness Cure Campaign is her attempt to show others the power and value of kindness and generosity in a way that will get many people involved and make a lasting impression.
