What is the Raj Mehta Day of Good?

Raj Mehta, beloved son, brother, and friend, passed away in 2020. Every year on April 15th, we celebrate Raj’s memory with a simple call to action: do something good. 

How do you do good? Any way that works for you, big or small. Reach out to a loved one, make a donation to a local food bank, participate in a clean up, volunteer for a charity, bake for your coworkers. It doesn’t have to be complicated, doing good can be easy. The Raj Mehta Day of Good is about how small acts of good can ripple out, inspiring habits and encouraging others to do good as well.

Pause for Community in 2026

This year’s theme for the Raj Mehta Day of Good is “Pause for Community,” encouraging us to slow down and take the time to engage with the people around us. Whether it’s about meeting new people or nourishing connections, this day will be about approaching others with openness and good faith. Celebrate by supporting organizations that you’re a part of, becoming involved with local government or charities, joining a new group, helping a stranger– whatever community means to you! 

This theme is inspired by Raj’s enthusiasm for meeting people. For Raj, friends were all around him, and new people were opportunities to learn and experience a new point of view. 

 This year’s sticker is designed by Grace Carasco. All 2026 registrants will receive this limited edition sticker as a small token of thanks for the good you do.
