Our Work
Fair Haven Library Kindness Closet
In April of 2026, BKTN’s first Kindness Closet was installed and launched in partnership with the New Haven Free Public Library’s Fair Haven Branch!
With help from Library Staff, Be Kinder Than Necessary volunteers Carley and Paul helped install the first Kindness Closet!
