Kynded

Send a Kyndedgram™ to say thanks for finding a wallet, making dinner or for just being there at the right time. Kynded was founded because our modern lives provide fewer opportunities to engage in compassionate and kind activities. Kindness defines our humanity and is hard-wired into all of us. As one of the most powerful and shaping human forces, kindness needs to be carefully nurtured. Located in San Francisco, our small, dedicated team is focused on allowing as many people as possible to take a small moment of time to show gratitude to someone who has shown kindness. This simple act of thanking someone is the foundation of a very powerful ripple effect that helps to shape kindness into an integral part of our daily lives, rather than just a nice thing to do. By using the very technology that has helped to create too many opportunities for us to isolate ourselves, we are leveraging the vast technology and social networks to help reconnect people with each other and this most powerful ability.

Support a Culture of Compassion™

Kynded is an easy-to-use service for anyone with a mobile phone, a tablet or a computer that immediately recognizes and records others' good deeds by posting them in Kynded.com's own community and other social networks. Kynded also allows your thank-you to include a gift, like a pledge to a favorite charity or a certificate for a warm cup of coffee. At every step, Kynded helps to reinforce and pass on the incredible benefits of kindness. Besides making us simply feel great - a good enough reason by itself - research has shown the more we engage in kindness the more measurable benefit we get; like better health, more productivity and more personal satisfaction. No downsides. Best of all, your Kynded account will keep a permanent record of all the kind things that have happened as a reminder of how important and how powerful being kind is.
