Mayor Teri Johnston adopted the official Symbol of Kindness

Mayor Teri Johnston, Vice Mayor Sam Kaufman, and City Commissioner Clayton Lopez, during the recent city commission meeting, adopted the official Symbol of Kindness.

“There is a need in our school communities, nation and world, for more kindness,” reads the proclamation.

Originating at the Tropical Elementary School in Merritt Island with a group called the Tropical Kingdom, the symbol is intended to help make people more aware of kindness in their everyday lives.

“Thank you, Key West, for making the Kindness Symbol official,” said Barbara Wilcox, who accepted the city proclamation. “Key West has the unique distinction of being the first city outside of Brevard County to recognize the Kindness symbol.”
