Kindness, Fairness, & Action: Learning about Racism
+
We’re proud to partner with Seeds of Caring to bring an Anywhere Project to the community that helps children explore racism through age-appropriate conversations and simple, meaningful activities you can do at home.
Designed for kids ages 6–12, this free, flexible project makes it easier to address the important topic of racism, answer big questions, and helps kids understand fairness, build empathy, and take small actions that make a big difference.

What You’ll Be Doing:
Through discussion, video, and a hands-on activity, this project introduces children to racism as a form of unfairness and helps them recognize how it can show up in everyday life. Kids build empathy, practice identifying fair and unfair situations, and are empowered to take action to create a more inclusive and caring community. One action includes collecting new or gently used books that contain a character of color for the families supported by YWCA Columbus.

When You'll Be Doing It:
This project is ongoing. Families and groups may participate anytime.
This Anywhere Project can be done at school, with community groups, at home, or wherever you are!
