Stockings for the Homeless | KIND TV

- KIND TV is a non-profit series devoted to bringing positive messages and shocking acts of kindness.
It's intimidating being one person wanting to make a positive difference in our world with HUGE international problems. What possibly could just one person do to help? Mother Theresa use to say, "If you can't feed a hundred people, feed just one." She was a smart woman indeed and couldn't be more correct.
We gathered those who wanted to help and together set out to help our homeless population in the Seattle area. What we didn't plan was who we'd come across at the end. Desperate, cold and all alone... or so he thought.

Thank you guys so much for changing peoples lives Seattle is an amazing place
Thank YOU for watching! ❤️ It definitely is.
Thank you so much for being so kind hearted and caring some people in this world are just so cruel. Keep up what you are doing you are amazing!
Thank you, Titi! We just wanted to make a small difference to the less fortunate in our community during the holidays and maybe inspire others to go out and create their own acts of kindness! ❤️
“Your Important” what a powerful statement.
I’m so glad I was able to participate in this amazing thing and that we did so much good for these people
Thank you for all the love in your heart! ❤️
Kindness can go along way! Don’t listen to the people that are negative on this comment board! These people need to be treated with respect. We are all just a few checks and a few tragedies away from being in there shoes. People don’t realize how easy it can happen. Keep up the good work! Thank you!
Thank you for your support! ❤️
kristi scocco I agree it is important but filming it was not needed look behind the curtain look vast the fake mask she wears
Love this! Happy holidays! 🎄🎁
The last one made me cry
Aww. Thank you for watching! ❤️
I used to be homeless and I worked at Seattle's Union Gospel Mission for almost 10 years. If somebody came up to me when I was homeless or one of my clients doing this s***, especially with the camera I would be extremely pissed. Unless you're doing something on a daily basis this is meaningless. This is nothing but a publicity stunt to make yourself feel and look good. Ultimately this is selfish. It has nothing to do with liberals or anything like that it's just vanity. Put the camera down roll up your sleeves and do something on a regular basis if you really care. If you wouldn't have done these things without cameras then you're doing it for pure ego.
thirtythreeflavors yes we do things constantly to help. In fact our president goes out weekly with the Seattle Unions Gospel weekly with Richard. We’ve also filmed with this organization and brought hundreds of coats out to the homeless and housed others. I believe our point is being missed here. The media system hasn’t been used for positive outlooks or kindness for way too long, probably back since Mr Rogers. Instead of watching shocking acts of hate or tragedy, we’re trying to use it for the good. To encourage kindness and giving is what we’re about, not a ego trip or publicity. We don’t get paid to be kind, we’re trying to use this platform to encourage others to come together to make a difference. We always get permission prior to releasing footage of others. I hope you take the time to watch some of our other episodes I get a better sense of our mission. Wishing you the best
@@KINDTVorg I would encourage you, if you really want to encourage shocking acts of kindness, take the 'shock' out of it. Give ideas to help regularly like keeping care bags in your car, or volunteering time in July instead of just at Christmas. Leave links to organizations like DESC or UGM or the Church of Mary Magdelene who do the long haul work of sitting with people on a DAILY basis and are actually changing lives without much fanfare and little resources. Many times, when homeless people are seen being given such obvious gifts like a bright red stocking, they are mugged after sun goes down (or sooner) by another homeless person. It happened to me, it happened to friends of mine. You want to inspire people, great. Inspire people THEN SHOW THEM WHERE TO RESPONSIBLY CHANNEL THAT INSPIRATION. Sorry, but your channel, as is, is just glamour charity and rings hollow.
Aw the part where the girl says that she NEVER had a stocking is so sad 😥 u are so nice
Thank you for watching! ❤️
Wonderful video! So heartwarming! You see, I had donated 6 bags of food to our food pantry in my town, but never see the results of it... Again, so heartwarming to see people receiving what they need, especially for the holidays! MERRY CHRISTMAS to ALL of you who worked on this video! God Bless!
prmgr0767able thank you so much for your kind words and for giving to those in need. ♥️
Faith in humanity restored
Awww. ❤️
Seattle is my city and sometimes me and my fam just don’t have the money to do it on our own...
Carlos Adrian Michel we’d love to have you come join us anytime ♥️
Whenever ever you do something nice... make sure your recording it so you can get as much attention as possible.
chopper dragger do you mean like trying to improve on there company or just a question being sarcastic 😂 (I just wanna know)
All the people that have a thumbs down on this you a mean person that was the most wonderfull act of kindness ever but all the people whith the thumbs up you are so nice we should do that some day but if you have you should have a huge hug,😚😚😚
That's very sweet and I heard the homeless are reciprocating the love. Be on the lookout for the "needles for liberals" campaign
Imma be real I'll take a homeless to my house and treat them like family
This is amazing
So flipping awesome your dope
Savage Native gratitude 🙏🏼 thank you
What do you put in the stockings?
Personal care & hygiene items, plus food!
That's my city, Seattle ❤️❤️❤️
Ryan Loy we love it here
3min in I cried
That was so nice but one person did a thumbs down.
Giving them stockings now gives homeless people houses so they aren't homeless.
No they get candy canes
I really really really want to help but im not a rich person i think when i grow up i can help the homeless
You don't have to be rich! Find a nonprofit that helps others and volunteer. It only takes your time, and even teens can help. 😊
Pls respond to my comment kind TV I would appreciate it feel free to say anything
Our aim was to inspire our community to create their own acts of kindness. Every kind act, no matter how small, matters to the person being helped. And yes, the food and sanitary items we gave them may have only helped for a short while, but it also showed them that they weren't forgotten in a world where they are regularly ignored by passersby.
Some people think that small acts don't matter, but small acts build up to create big change. If everyone set out to do one small thing a day to help someone or our planet, the world would be a much better, kinder, and cleaner place.
We've sent a human trafficking victim to college. We've raised thousands upon thousands so a dog rescuer could continue saving abused and neglected dogs from all over the country. We've given children their dying wishes. That matters. Every story and person matters.
You also must remember that this web series is only a small part of what we do and that our team help others in many other ways that are not filmed, as we cannot film everything. Judging the entirety of a nonprofit and the people involved based on one video without further research is choosing to be ignorant about a cause and people who spend their lives helping others when many people choose to simple ignore.
