Purposity comes from the core belief that humanity finds purpose through generosity. Everywhere around us we see people in need. We also see people who want to help others but don’t know how. Purposity connects those dots through the power of technology. School systems and non-profits in local communities let Purposity know needs in your area.

You click a link, see the need, and make a difference for someone near you. It may be the family next door who lost their home in a fire or the child down the street you didn’t know needed school supplies. It’s easy. It’s simple, and it takes just a few clicks to make a difference in someone’s life. It’s the fastest way to impact your community, one need at a time.

Kindness is contagious.

The benefits increase as the number of kind acts increases.

Practicing intentional kindness can help reduce stress when under duress.

Ways to show Kindness at School

• Support • Optimism & Positivity • Happiness • Collaboration • Connection & Empathy

Every October, individuals from the across the nation – and around the world – unite in a campaign to keep all youth safe from bullying. At RTMS we would like to keep this an ongoing initiative every day of the year.

Unite AGAINST Bullying & Unite FOR Kindness, Acceptance and Inclusion.

We urge our R.T.M.S. families to discuss the roles educators, parents AND STUDENTS play in preventing and addressing bullying, as well as what to do if you see or experience bullying.
