We envision a world where all children lead with compassion.

MAKING COMPASSION A HABIT

We strengthen connectedness through compassion experiences for all ages.

Founded in 2016, Mindful Littles is the only education organization of its kind engaging students in service through feel-good mindfulness practices and do-good community service.

We bring our innovative curriculum— Mindful Service Learning — to schools and local communities,

activating compassionate leadership in our youngest generations.

From service learning field trips to after-school family service projects, we make service easy, engaging and meaningful for all ages. Our programs have reached over 20,000 students benefiting over 40 nonprofit partners, while strengthening student connectedness to their school and local community.

Our Mindful Service Learning Curriculum

Our educational curriculum for elementary students integrates authentic

community problem-solving with academic and social emotional learning- all while having fun!

By helping students feel good while doing good, we teach students how to strengthen their compassion muscle from the inside out.

“Growing into a young adult and figuring out my own place and worth was a transformation full of stress, mistakes, and difficult decisions. Coming to Mindful Littles at the beginning of this process helped me develop and maintain a mental composure, kindness (to myself and others), and care that has made my transformation and journey one that I am genuinely happy with, and proud of.”
