Nominations now open for Laurier Brantford's Kindness is Golden initiative

Is there a Laurier Brantford student, faculty or staff member – or someone from the local community – whose act of kindness put a smile on your face, helped you out of a tough spot, or even changed your life? We’d love to hear their story. 

Laurier Brantford's Communications and Community Engagement team is accepting nominations for Kindness is Golden, a showcase of inspiring people from our university community whose good deeds — large and small — are making a difference. Whether they provided a warm welcome on your first day or went above and beyond to help you achieve your goals, this is a fantastic opportunity to shine a spotlight on the folks who inspire us all to be better, kinder, more generous people.  

Submit your Kindness is Golden nomination here. 

Selected nominees who consent to participate will receive a Kindness is Golden prize pack and be featured on Laurier's social media channels in honour of Random Acts of Kindness Day on Feb. 17.   

Nominations are open until Jan. 25, 2026.
