Reblogs and signal boosts are appreciated, because there are still people signing up who say this year is the first they’ve heard of it. So let’s get the word out if we can, although frankly, even if we don’t go over 393 people, that’s pretty amazing! :) Follow @batchofkindness for further updates, and find me on Twitter at the same handle.

Batch of Kindness 2017!
For the past three years, fans of Benedict Cumberbatch across the globe joined together to perform acts of kindness in celebration of the actor's July 19 birthday. The campaign was prompted by the words of the actor himself in a 2013 thank you letter to the fans, quoted below: "...it may be cheeky after such efforts and generosity...but could I make a request? Could you please put the time and energy, money and effort you put into those gifts, cards and messages to me into doing good for someone else?...it doesn’t have to be money, perhaps it’s just a bit of your time or a simple gesture of kindness...anyway if it makes me sound ungrateful for what you gave me please forgive my rudeness. I simply think if the number of people who threw love my way did so to people that need it far more than me, that would be a wonderful feeling for us all to have on my birthday."
Each year, the Batch of Kindness acts are compiled and bound into a colorful booklet and sent off to Benedict's agency in London. Of the 2014 booklet, Benedict said in a statement tweeted by the agency: "I was soo moved by the money raised and all your ‘Batch Of Kindness’ stories… As I think it was called… Silly names aside the deeds were marvellous, imaginative and so generous. Thank you B- x" So, are we ready for another go? July 19 has become an incredible day of positivity and love for those who have participated. Sign up at batchofkindness.com by clicking on the “Participating this year?” button and completing the short form (it takes 5 seconds!). Join the fun as we come together as a fandom to make the world a little brighter! <3
Batch of Kindness 2017 running total: 205 people in 42 countries, as of June 21! Still plenty of time to sign up to spread kindness on Benedict's July 19 birthday. Friendly reminder to sign up if you want yourself added to the total number because we reset it at 0 every year!

How do you participate? Do something kind--anything, really!--and tweet about it with the hashtag #batchofkindness on July 19. It’s a fun day of coming together as a fandom community and celebrating the friendships we’ve made via social media, and in doing so, making the world a little brighter (and hopefully making the kindness contagious…the goal is never to limit it to one day!).
Responses have slowed a bit (which is typical) so we’d love to get the word out to more fans! The more people who participate, the more fun, so thank you for reblogging, retweeting, sharing, etc!

What is Batch of Kindness? Batch of Kindness is the coordinated effort of Benedict Cumberbatch fans worldwide performing acts of kindness on his birthday, July 19. Fans tweet their acts of kindness all day with the hashtag #batchofkindness and hopefully create a sort of escalating tide of compassion and goodwill as the day wears on. When it’s over, all the tweets are compiled into an organized booklet and mailed off to Benedict’s agency in London.
As a way of gathering momentum during the weeks leading up to July 19, we keep track of how many people have indicated their intention to take part via the “Participating this year?” form on batchofkindness.com. Crochet John and Sherlock adding flags to their living room wall is a fun little way to keep track of which countries we’ve heard from.
