Random Acts of Kindness Week

Random Acts of Kindness Week (February 12 through 18) is a celebration of all the different ways that we may make a difference in one another’s lives. Someone may be extremely grateful for even a single modest act of kindness. Sometimes the world may be cruel and egotistical and not everyone gets the support they require. It is crucial that we are continuously reminded to be kind to one another and to give them hope whenever we can in such a world. A little bit of random kindness can go a long way.
