Spreading the message of kindness through JAM Enterprises
Creating the #bethekindkid message

JAM Enterprises is an entrepreneurial club that started at Avonworth Primary Center. The club meets weekly to combine their creativity and compassion to help others. Their efforts in 2017-2018 led to the creation of the #bethekindkid campaign. Their message encourages kindness and has spread not only throughout our school community, but throughout the Pittsburgh area and beyond. JAM has now sold over 20,000 #bethekindkid t-shirts. Profits from the shirts go to the American Cancer Association. During the 2017-2018 school year, JAM Enterprises was also able to donate approximately $3,000 to local charities, as well as contribute to the Greater Pittsburgh Food Bank.
