Angels Camp, CA...Passing on Ripples of Kindness week in Calveras County is FEB 11-17, 2018. 2018 CHALLENGE: When you see a blue ribbon, start a conversation about kindness in your home or workplace! We invite everyone to join us in celebrating Kindness Week in Calaveras County February 11 - 17, 2018.


As in the past, our project will provide kindness pass it on ribbons and tie up ribbon for all Calaveras County Schools who wish to participate.
Over the years and going forward, the project is supported by the kindness and generosity of local residents.

We have delivered more than 4,000 pass-it-on ribbons and several hundred yards of tie up blue ribbon to Calaveras County Schools.

Look for the blue ribbons during the week of kindness and start a conversation about kindness in your home or workplace.
