This January let's spread kindness like confetti! One powerful method of letting someone know we are thankful for them is through handwritten notes or letters, expressing appreciation to anyone who has made a positive impact. Acts of kindness whether big or small, such as helping a peer with schoolwork or volunteering for a community project, not only displays an act of kindness but gratitude as well. Let's make it a trend to be kind! Participate in our Acts of Kindness Challenge. Share your kind deeds on social media using #ACTSOFKINDNESS and let's create a wave of positivity.
