RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS WEEK FEBRUARY 10 - 16, 2014
Monday, February 10th, 2014 RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS WEEK began. It is an organization encouraging all children and adults to reach out to strangers during the week and perform multiple Act of Kindness. The Acts can be as simple as a smile, opening the door, allowing someone to go ahead of you in line, paying for someone's lunch or coffee, and my personal favorite: adopting a rescue cat or dog from your local animal shelter.
For more information on how you can celebrate this week visit:
Why stop on February 16th, keep the kindness going year long.
