KINDNESS EFFECT - Kindness Effects

Francesca Donlan developed and taught the first kindness class at Florida Gulf Coast University. She taught more than 200 students over three years and their outcomes exceeded all expectations.

Data compiled from three years of teaching revealed that by the end of each semester students reported higher levels of self-compassion, a renewed energy and commitment to practicing acts of kindness and a stronger connection to their community.

It helped FGCU college students suffering through one of the worst hurricanes in Southwest Florida history and Covid realize that in the worst of times, kindness has the power to heal and change their lives for the better.

Research reveals that kindness has the power to significantly improve our professional and personal lives for the better. Francesca offers one-hour presentations as well as other longer programs that will strengthen morale, foster community and leave participants with a roadmap to create a kinder, happier and healthier life.
