WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, UNITED STATES, March 30, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Washington, DC’s Cherry Blossom Kite Flying Festival returned to the National Mall this year after a pandemic hiatus. Thousands flew kites around the iconic Washington Monument in celebration of the return of spring. The kites dotted the sky, despite the challenges adults and children alike faced to keep their kites aloft in the stiff March winds. This year the festival was perfectly timed as the cherry blossoms were at their peak, in full bloom.

Volunteers from The Way to Happiness Foundation participated by flying 21 kites that each carried one of the precepts (a general rule intended to regulate behavior) from The Way to Happiness booklet including such messages as “Love and Help Children,” “Be Competent,” and “Take Care of Yourself.”

Some of the volunteers shared copies of the booklet with those attending the festival while the others spread the message on their kites in the blustery winds.

Ms. Kim Bey, Executive Director of Washington, DC’s The Way to Happiness chapter was raised in a poor neighborhood in Malaysia and is familiar with the need for respect and kindness. Kim has seen how the messages of The Way to Happiness booklet have changed lives for the better. As a successful business owner, Ms. Bey is spearheading this project with her volunteer team to put stability in people’s lives.

“I am doing this to help people with their own lives as well as people they care about. The booklet, simple yet very powerful, is a fundamental guide to leading a happier life,” said Ms. Bey. “This weekend’s kite festival was great fun and a happy, creative way for us to share. It was great to see hundreds of families out flying kites all around the Washington Monument. The youth are our future and I want to instill in them The Way to Happiness messages so that we can all have a better future.”

Ms. Bey and her volunteers have distributed more than 100,000 The Way to Happiness booklets in Washington, DC. Volunteers working in crime prevention as well as anti-gun violence programs have been using The Way to Happiness to help in teaching common sense values.
