Welcome to The New Character Counts! Akron Web Site, we are a non-profit organization committed to providing the leadership and coordination to promote and encourage character developement in Akron, Ohio.

Random Acts of Character Tokens

Ever meet someone in the course of your day who went out of his way to be courteous or helpful?  Know someone who exemplifies the 6 Pillars of Character: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship?  Ever wonder what you could do to show them that their actions make a difference?

CHARACTER COUNTS! Akron wants to help you recognize others for their character choices.  Random Acts of Character token project celebrates those acts of good character that help to make our community a better place. 

How do you participate?  Call, email, or stop by our office to request wooden tokens used to thank recipients for their choices.  Then, simply look around your community.  When you see someone practicing good character, give them a “token” of your thanks.  Tell them that you appreciated their actions and ask them to pass a token on to someone they value. 

Finally, go online at www.charactercountsakron.org/RandomActsRegistration.htm  and register your participation.  Write a few lines about the person and the reason that you awarded your token.

Have a business, organization, or club and would like to participate?  Give us a call to talk about additional recognition opportunities.

Our goal is to find 3000 people from October 1st, 2004 through October 31st, 2005.  Help us to celebrate character in our community throughout the next year!
