Random Acts of Kindness Week


This is Random Acts of Kindness Week February 12-18, 2017. I read an article in the Parade circular that we get inside of our paper and it had a great article on Random Acts of Kindness. I plan on doing at least one, if not more, random acts of kindness everyday this week. We are doing things for neighbors in our neighborhood this week and below are some ideas. Here is a website with some ideas: https://www.randomactsofkindness.org. There are SO many sites, but below are a few I thought would be helpful. 

Good Housekeeping 
Zillow 
Events to Celebrate 
PopSugar 

There are so many things we can do for neighbors whether it is: 

  • Waving 
  • Saying hello 
  • Introducing yourself to someone you don't know or haven't spoken to 
  • Making baked goods or a meal for someone 
  • Giving someone a box of Girl Scout cookies 
  • Writing a note 
  • Bringing in a neighbors trashcan or newspaper 
  • One neighbor left me a random Halloween doormat because they knew we decorated and I thought it was a super kind gesture. 
  • Picking up trash in the neighborhood 
  • Delivering flowers or fruit to the elderly who doesn't get out much or to anyone because you want to make their day 
  • Sending a $5 Starbucks card to a neighbor 
  • Sending a complimentary note to a neighbor about how nice they are, you love their yard, something you notice about them or their actions, etc. 
  • Call a neighbor to see how they are doing 
  • The list goes on and on and on
