As their website states, "Make Kindness Contagious is a group of kids and parent volunteers who want to spread kindness by celebrating what makes each of us unique. We know that today’s world is filled with challenges that can diminish self-confidence in kids. Being kind is a great way to build self-esteem." 

Kris Foley is the iHeartMedia Region President for its South Ohio region overseeing the Cincinnati, Columbus, and Dayton markets.

She is also the president of the non-profit she founded, Make Kindness Contagious.

How did this come about?

Lauren Foley, Kris' daughter, developed Alopecia Universalis when she was five. She lost all of her hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes within 4 months.

Lauren has learned to appreciate what makes her unique. Empowering her to celebrate what makes her stand out is essential.

Kris has dedicated the last few years to finding support throughout the Alopecia community and foundations dedicated to bringing awareness to this disease. But mostly, she wants to fulfill Lauren’s dream of just making people more kind.

In Lauren’s own words,

“I don’t mind if people stare, I just wish they would smile more when they did”

MKC are committed to kindness in action, and they hope you’ll join them. From kid-friendly fundraisers for organizations that help others facing hardships, to random acts of kindness, they’re here to help coach kids through it and help them rise up.
