What is U-ACT?

U-ACT which stands for Unbridled Acts, or random acts of kindness, is a character-building initiative specifically for elementary and middle schools with grades K-8, which aims to inspire and energize students about the value of being kind to others. Participating schools are asked to submit an idea for a kindness program to the Foundation for a chance to earn a grant ranging from $150-$2,500. At the end of the 2011-2012 school year, one school will be named the Champion School and will receive an additional $5,000 grant.

Goal

The goal of the Red Robin Foundation U-ACT Champion Program is to help foster and create a sense of neighborliness inside and outside of the school.

Program History

Unbridled Acts are a core fundamental for Red Robin Team Members, who are recognized and celebrated for kind acts they bestow upon restaurant Guests and other Team Members. Red Robin Gourmet Burgers first launched the U-ACT Champion Program with the Colorado PTA in 2005 as a statewide program for Colorado middle and junior high school students. Seeing the tremendous value it had in Colorado schools, the program grew to include schools across the country.
