Overview

Mission

Perform secret and visible acts of kindness and services for family, friends, neighbors, co-workers and strangers. As indicated in Matthew 6:1-4, we choose to do our missions of good deeds in secret to selflessly help others and not draw attention to ourselves, so that God receives all of glory for making a positive impact in the lives of those we help. When we act in this manner as GSS Agents, God also meets our own needs and blesses us abundantly. At GSSA, we are dedicated to enlisting and nurturing compassionate volunteers, known as GSS Agents, who are committed to spreading kindness in their communities. Whether through small secret acts of kindness or carefully planned initiatives, our goal is to make the world a brighter, more compassionate place for all. Through our headquarters, we coordinate larger-scale secret acts of kindness and provide vital support to non-profit organizations offering kindness programs for children, those in foster care, and homeless individuals.

What it reported doing in 2025
