Tucson Kindness Project Hangs 1000 Bells Around Newtown, In Solidarity With Shooting Victims

A project that hangs small wind chimes with bells is becoming a healing remedy for grieving communities following tragic mass shootings. An Arizona mom in mourning started Ben's Bells after her little boy passed away from illness. She wanted to say thank-you for the many kindnesses that were shown her, passing it forward so more people would remember how kindness heals. A few years later, the project grew, embraced by the Tucson community following the shooting of Congresswoman Giffords and thirteen other citizens. Hundreds of volunteers painted, assembled and hung the ceramic wind chimes from random branches, and doorknobs and playgrounds around the city. Last week Ben's mom, Jeannette Maté, traveled to the location of the latest tragedy, Newtown, Conn., with 1,000 bells to distribute to a community in need of smiles.
