United Dragons

With the season of giving upon us, we at UD want to celebrate our amazing community by giving back together!

How would you like to make a difference this Christmas?
It’s super simple: create your very own Christmas Kindness Jar!

You can use anything you already have at home - a clean jam jar, a pasta sauce jar, or even a decorated tin. Add some festive flair with stickers, paint, ribbon, coloured paper, and don’t forget to write your name and “Christmas Kindness Jar for GOSH charity” so everyone knows what it’s for.

Spread kindness. Get creative.
Make a difference.

Kindness Jar for GOSH Charity

How it works

Throughout the festive period, try to complete as many acts of kindness as you can. Every time you do something kind, encourage parents, friends, or visiting family members to pop a small donation into your jar. It’s an easy, fun way to spread kindness and raise money at the same time!

Easy ideas to earn donations:

  • Washing the dishes or helping clear the table

  • Tidying your room

  • Playing with or looking after a younger sibling

  • Helping a neighbour carry shopping

  • Walking the dog

  • Making someone a Christmas card

  • Offering to help with wrapping presents

  • Being extra kind to a friend who needs support

Every act counts and every donation, big or small, helps make a meaningful difference. Let’s spread kindness together this Christmas!

  • Step 1 - Make your jar

    Use anything you already have: a jam jar, pasta sauce jar, tin, or container. Decorate it with festive flair—stickers, paint, ribbon, glitter, coloured paper—and don’t forget to include your name and “Christmas Kindness Jar for GOSH charity.”

  • Step 2 - Earn donations through acts of kindness

    Every time your child completes an act of kindness, encourage a parent, friend, or family member to pop a donation into the jar.

  • Step 3 - Make your donation

    At the end of January, simply make your donation. Every penny goes directly to Great Ormond Street Hospital.
