This study explores the impact of acts of kindness intervention on the level of forgiveness among college students. Forgiveness, a crucial element of mental well-being, often plays a significant role in maintaining healthy interpersonal relationships and reducing emotional distress. The intervention aimed to enhance students' forgiveness by encouraging regular, intentional acts of kindness over a specified period. Results indicate a significant increase in forgiveness levels among participants, suggesting that acts of kindness can be an effective tool in fostering a more forgiving and empathetic mindset. The findings support the hypothesis that engaging in acts of kindness can enhance forgiveness among college students. The significant increase in forgiveness scores among the intervention group highlights the potential of kindness-based interventions in promoting a forgiving attitude. The increase in empathy and positive emotions observed in the intervention group aligns with previous research, suggesting that these factors play a mediating role in the relationship between kindness and forgiveness.
