Happy World Kindness Day!
At the Tax Project Institute, we’re excited to celebrate a day that resonates so closely with our mission of transparency, openness, civic education, and, above all, paying it forward. World Kindness Day, observed every November 13, reminds us to bring a spirit of generosity to our work, our communities, and ourselves, fostering a culture of kindness in even the smallest interactions.
As an organization committed to educating the public on how tax dollars are spent, we see World Kindness Day as an opportunity to connect our efforts with those who seek clarity, equity, and the betterment of society. Just as kindness can transform communities, so too can knowledge empower individuals to understand and engage with the world around them. By fostering transparency in government spending and educating citizens about their contributions and the impact of taxes, we aim to create a foundation of trust—one where people feel informed, included, and motivated to engage in civic life.
Why Kindness Matters in Our Mission
Our work is more than numbers and policies; it’s about people, communities, and shared values. We believe that kindness can be a guiding principle in our commitment to transparency. Just as World Kindness Day encourages people to show compassion, the Tax Project Institute invites everyone to engage with our resources and join us in learning about government spending priorities. Understanding how our tax dollars are spent and where they make a difference connects us all, fostering civic pride and personal accountability.
