About Gen K
Gen K is an all ages movement dedicated to building stronger communities through acts of intersectional kindness, or kindness for people who are doing it tough. Gen K'ers know ageism hurts and believe our value should not be determined on the basis of our age. We need each other and when we work across generations we can change the world.
There are many ways to participate in Gen K. Sign up for our newsletter, follow us on social media, participate in our projects, or join the Gen K Leadership Network. Details below.
