About

Kindness, written down. ROK — Random Opportunities for Kindness — is a nonprofit network where people record the kind things they actually did. Not opinions. Not outrage. A public ledger of good: quiet, optional, kind. HOW IT WORKS Do something kind. Record it in a few seconds — a sentence, a photo if you have one. That's it. Your act joins a live feed of real kindness from people all over the world. THE CHAIN REACTION Here's the part that makes ROK different. When someone joins because of you, their kindness counts for you too. One act becomes three, becomes nine, becomes twenty-seven. You earn 10 points for your own act, 5 when someone you inspired does one, and 1 more level out. Watch your ripple spread in the Pond — a living map of everyone your kindness reached. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Record acts of kindness in seconds, with photos if you want • Follow a live feed of real acts from around the world • See kindness light up a world map • Climb leaderboards — today, this month, all time • Earn badges and equippable titles as you go • Cheer and comment on other people's acts • Join groups — schools, faith communities, workplaces, sheriff's departments • Find volunteer opportunities near you and RSVP in a tap • Invite people with a link, a QR code, or a ROK bracelet BUILT TO BE SAFE Every post and comment can be reported in two taps, and you can block anyone from anywhere in the app — their posts, comments, and notifications disappear for you immediately. Reports are private. Our team reviews every one, and content reported for child-safety, sexual, or violent material comes down before a human even looks at it. You can delete your account, and everything in it, whenever you like. NONPROFIT, AND NOT FOR SALE ROK is a project of Kindness Worldwide, a nonprofit. There are no ads, nothing to buy, and nothing to upgrade. We don't sell your data. The whole thing exists because the world is better with more kindness in it, and because kindness spreads faster when people can see it happening. Questions, or something to report?
