Absolutely Incredible Kid Day is a Camp Fire USA's nationwide letter-writing campaign in which adults tell children how Absolutely Incredible they are. Held annually on March 18th, Alpha Phi Omega members and chapters have participated in Absolutely Incredible Kid Day for the past several years, almost since its inception. This project is intended as an easy way to get started in working with your local Camp Fire USA council and to help children.

If one cannot do the project specifically on March 18, they are free to pick an alternate day to conduct your project, preferably earlier in March. Alpha Phi Omega encourages chapters to include this project in their Spring service program.
