Kol Hakavod: Graham Goodhart!

Weber Junior Graham Goodhart was selected as a featured speaker at TEDxHopkinton HS Youth in Massachusetts, where he delivered a powerful talk on the measurable impact of kindness. Sharing the stage with accomplished researchers, neurologists, and innovators, Graham offered a compelling perspective on how small acts of kindness can create lasting change.

In his talk, Graham shared a deeply personal story about a childhood accident and how a paramedic’s simple act of kindness helped him heal—not just physically, but emotionally. Drawing on neuroscience research, he explored the ways kindness affects the brain and body, reducing stress, improving health, and fostering human connection. He challenged the audience to rethink the way society values kindness, proposing a system where acts of kindness are quantifiable and incentivized, much like charitable giving.
