PTK Honor Society Reminds Us All to Be Kind

Kindness comes in many forms. It might be as simple as giving a smile to someone who has felt alone in the world, taking the time listen to a student who is struggling, or helping an elderly neighbor by shoveling his or her driveway. It might even be taking care of the growing plants in the Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) Live and Learn Greenhouse and releasing ladybugs to eat the pests that damage the growing crops (thank you PTK Greenhouse Manager Corrine Marquardt). Whatever kindness you do, PTK wants to know!

The Honor Society's new campaign/contest: Pass The Kindness, wants to know, how do you Pass The Kindness? 

All QCC students are invited to participate and enter for a chance to win some great prizes, including a $500 QCC Tuition waiver! Other prizes include $50 Wegman's gift cards and a $25 American Express Gift Card.

For each submission, you will receive a chance to win. If you send us a picture* along with your description of how you Pass The Kindness, you will be entered into the drawing twice. The drawing will be held on May 1, 2022, and the winners will be notified on Monday, May 2, 2022. 

All submissions must be sent by email to phithetakappa [at] qmail.qcc.edu and MUST be sent on the 28th of the month ONLY (February, March and April). Entries MUST include your name, major, and a description of what you have done to Pass The Kindness. 

*If you send a picture to receive two entries, please indicate if you give us consent to use your photo for marketing purposes. If you do not give us consent to use your photo it will not impact your entries or chance to win.
