Apply today to have your school be part of the program. Teachers and program leaders will have the opportunity to recognize students for their acts of kindness - actions can be as simple as holding the door open for someone, or helping another student solve a problem, carry their books, clean up after class, etc. This program is available for kids ages 6 to 12.

North Central Co-op will provide your school or program with Co-op Kindness Crew badges for you to hand out between May and June 2026. The Kindness badge isn't the only reward - with it comes a full year of Co-op goodness. The Kindness Crew will receive coupons full of Co-op freebies redeemable at North Central Co-op gas bars and food stores, a Co-op Kindness Crew badge, and bragging rights. Coupons are valued at $25.

A limited number of badges will be available.
