Golden Apple Movement

Golden Apple Movement

The Golden Apple Movement is a grassroots effort to empower and encourage others to share random acts of kindness. Although the Golden Apple Movement’s roots have cultivated out of the City of North Olmsted, it is up to each person who has received a Golden Apple Movement card to spread kindness and compassion to others throughout all communities.

The philosophy is simple: Think of a random act of kindness, see it through, and tell that person to give a gesture of kindness to someone else. Stop by the North Olmsted Senior Center Monday-Friday 8am-4:30pm to pick up your Golden Apple Movement card, and see the Golden Apple Ideas below if you need inspiration. Join the movement, be a good apple and pass your card along- because kindness matters.

If you want to learn more about the Golden Apple Movement, please contact Jackie Anderson, Senior Center Administrator, at andersonj@north-olmsted.com.
