About Us
If you’re looking for a "catch," you won't find one.
Kind Works was started by a Dundas neighbour who spent over twenty years in the intense world of healthtech. After building and selling two companies, she hit a wall. It took a three year break to recover from the burnout and realize she didn't want to scale anything else for a profit. She just wants to do some good things that were actually fun to work on. Simple, right?
But, where do we even start? The world feels heavy right now. We are all over-scheduled, overwhelmed, and bombarded by a 24/7 cycle of headlines and noise that keep us on edge. It is easy to feel like we're just barely keeping our heads above water.
Kind Works is an effort to reclaim our own headspaces. It is about tuning out the toxic noise and focusing instead on creating some bright lights in our own backyard. Being kind is one of the few things we can actually control. It is backed by science, it requires zero privilege, and it creates a ripple effect that actually makes life better. It certainly can't hurt to put a smile on someone's face while feeling pretty great doing it.
We are a 100% volunteer collective. There are no hidden agendas, no profits, and no B.S. Whether it is a tiny lift for a neighbour or a big 'moonshot' idea that needs heavy-weight support, we are here to help. Simply because we can.
We don't know exactly what we are doing yet, but we know it is time to take action. If this resonates with you, we would love to hear from you.
