About the Founder
Lyle Benjamin — Author, Educator, Speaker & Social Responsibility Entrepreneur
Lyle Benjamin didn't start out wanting to change the world — he just wanted to repay a debt. Growing up with a difficult family life, he found kindness from mentors, teachers, and strangers who took a genuine interest in him. That kindness changed the trajectory of his life.
From publishing a national relationship magazine to running a successful event business, Lyle eventually recognized he had strayed from his original mission. So he gave it all up — and started building nonprofits.
Today he is the Founder of three nonprofit organizations: 16 Things Kids Can Do, Planned Acts of Kindness, and One Planet One People — and the Creator of MassageMate24™, whose commercial success directly funds those global missions.

Our Mission
One Planet. One People. One Chance.
One Planet One People's mission is to develop and promote the collaborative programs, initiatives, and systems needed to push back on the tipping-point issues of climate change, pollution, pandemics, war, and social, economic, and health inequalities — on a local-to-global scale — that threaten Quality of Life for kids, people, and the planet.
The Problem
We are using a fractional approach to solve global issues — and it simply will not work. It didn't work in the past, it failed with the pandemic, and it won't work with climate change, war, or health inequity.
The Solution
The only viable path is collaboration. Individuals working from the grassroots up, and institutions working top-down, aligned to the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals — together.
The Urgency
This decade will determine the Quality of Life for 8 billion people on this planet. The time to step up and "Be The Hero" is not tomorrow. It's now.
Planned Acts of Kindness
We Gamified Karma & the More You Do the Greater Your Rewards
Planned Acts of Kindness is a Global Social Responsibility Platform working with five groups — students, employees, owners, retirees, and the unemployed — in collaboration with schools, faith-based organizations, nonprofits, government agencies, and businesses.
The concept is elegant: the more acts of kindness, engagement, volunteerism, and support you perform, the greater your rewards — through a gamified Karma system that makes doing good feel as compelling as any game.
