בטיימס סקוור, ניו יורק נערכה לפני מספר ימים חגיגה של טוב לב – פלטפורמת הווידאו Gan Jing World (https://ganjing.b3355.xyz/) ("עולם נקי"), אירחה את הטקס השנתי לפרסי Be Kind, Be Cool, ליוצרים שהבליטו טוב הלב בתכנים ובאמנות שלהם.
הפלטפורמה השיקה את היוזמה במטרה לעודד אנשים ברחבי העולם לספר על מעשיהם הטובים.
"אנחנו מקווים שטוב הלב יהיה כמו זרע, שייגע בלבבות של כולם, ובמיוחד בלבבות של הצעירים, ויצמיח שורשים", אומרת מנהלת "עולם נקי".
אחד המשתתפים מספר מדוע הוא מזדהה עם היוזמה החדשה: "אני מעביר אותו אליך, אתה מעביר אליה, אתה מעביר אליו, הוא מעביר אליו. עלינו להמשיך ולהפיץ טוב לב, אהבה והגינות".
לדברי משתתפת אחרת באירוע: "כל מה שאני יודעת הוא שכאשר עושים זאת, אתה מחייך ומרגיש טוב בלב".
זוכה באחד הפרסים בתחרות אומר בשיחה עם כתבת NTD שהייתה באירוע: "במהלך המגפה, התבוננתי במתרחש בעולם, ראיתי עצב רב, זו הייתה בהחלט תקופה קשה מאוד עבור אנשים. חשבתי לעצמי, למה שלא אעשה את ההפך? למה שפשוט לא אעשה את ההיפך? החלטתי לעשות את ההפך הגמור". ____________________
Ganjing World hosted its annual \"Be Kind, Be Cool\" awards in Times Square, New York, to honor content creators who promote kindness and positivity. The event celebrated global individuals who integrate compassion into their daily lives, aiming to foster a supportive online environment and inspire younger generations to spread love and integrity.
A celebration of kindness today. Online video platform Ganjing World hosted their annual
Be Kind, Be Cool awards honoring creators who highlighted kindness in their content and their
art. And Denise Nukubani reports from Times Square. At the heart of Times Square, one message is taking
over the screens. Be kind and be cool. Ganjing World is hosting their annual kindness awards,
recognizing people from around the world who are making kindness a part of their everyday lives.
Ganjing World, which means Ganjing World, is a video streaming and content sharing platform.
It aims to create a positive online environment by promoting kindness and meaningful content.
They launched their hashtag Be Kind, Be Cool campaign in 2023, encouraging people around
the world to share acts of kindness. We hope this kindness is like a seed
and to bring to everybody, especially young people's heart and let it grow.
I give it to you, you give it to her, you give it to him, he give it to him.
We got to keep the ball rolling with kindness, love and integrity.
All I know is that when you do it, you smile and you feel good in your heart.
This year's top prizes went to a content creator known as the anonymous Good Samaritan
and the film Bebe's Wish. Meanwhile, bronze prize winners took the stage in Times Square,
counting down to a billboard reveal and also receiving their awards.
No matter what, treat people how you want to be treated.
And even if people are just being so rude, kill them with kindness.
Josh Nassar shares the inspiration behind his kindness journey,
a content creator who now has 10 million followers
who watch him drive around screaming compliments at strangers.
During the pandemic, I looked at what was going on in the world. There was a lot of sadness. It
was just obviously a really hard time for people. So I go, why don't I do the opposite?
Why don't I just literally, I just literally went, let me do the opposite.
The campaign has received recognition from multiple state governors and lawmakers.
Flushing District Leader Martha Flores Vazquez
shares why she presented a proclamation honoring the movement.
Because kindness is my middle name and this is all about kindness. So if I can show gratitude
for people that are doing the good work in New York City, then I'm present.
Today, Ganjig World also opens up submissions for their next round of global kindness awards.
