B Kinder – June 22, 2025

B Kinder Day, celebrated every year on June 22, is a special holiday that honors and pays tribute to a young girl who cares about her community and those around her. It also tells us to be kind to others no matter what life puts us through. Do you know that kindness can convert into love? Yes, witnessing acts of kindness produces oxytocin, the love hormone which helps lower blood pressure and improves our overall-heart health while making us feel happy. So why not practice kindness and be kind? Here’s everything you need to know about Billie Kinder, her life, her history, and why B Kinder Day is important.

History of B Kinder

Billie Jayde Kinder was born on February 6, 2004, in North Queensland, Australia, to Danielle Mayson-Kinder and David Kinder. Billie’s true love, other than her family, was her horses. Thanks to her short stature and young age, Billie quickly became an accomplished rider. She won the 2014 Arndell’s Equestrian Athlete of the Year K–6 and finished fourth in the 31.5-inch showjumping qualifying for the 2014 National Interschool Championships. In 2015, she once again won the Arndell’s equestrian athlete of the year K–6 and was also acknowledged as the State Interschool primary showjumping champion, the overall champion rider. As we can see, Billie lived for her horses and her family.

All her life Billie was kind, cheerful, and happy and was well-known in her community for her extraordinary accomplishments and caring, loving, and compassionate nature towards the community. However, in 2016, a tragedy struck the community when Billie died in a horse-riding accident while leading her horse back to her stable. She suffered a severe head injury and bodily injuries and died soon after.

Her mother, Danny Mayson-Kinder created B Kinder Day in honor of her daughter as well as to empower children to make a difference in the world. An organization called flyhighbillie was also established soon after to provide support and assistance to children and young people to help combat bullying, mental health issues, and suicide. So, let’s emphasize hope, empathy, change, kindness, happiness, and positivity in this world.
