With the KindVines project, Dignity Health and Eleven, Inc. is encouraging Vine users to perform and record a [random act of human kindness](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chevrolet-good-deeds-cup) and upload it with the #KindVines tag.

Visiting the KindVines site provides a few starting off points you could use for inspiration, including really simple actions like greeting a stranger, making someone laugh, or instead of virtually "liking" something, vocalize your approval for something by [complimenting someone in the real world](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hijack-socialization). Watching these quick, [heartwarming moments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-real-boost) are a great way to remind yourself just how good people can be, especially if you find yourself in doubt.

KindVines is a part of the 'Hello humankindness' campaign, which was initiated as a way to bring "more humanity into health care."
