Can random acts be planned?

I was just reading a news article about a newlywed couple who decided to forego a honeymoon and is traveling all through the US with the goal of doing a random act of kindness in each of the 50 states.
A laudable act, no doubt.
My question isn’t about that – it’s about words and intentions.
If they are planning this trip and its activities, then are the deeds truly random? Does planning negate randomness? Would it be more appropriate to say that they are going to visit 50 states and do nice things, as opposed to including the word “random”?
