Happy Random Acts of Kindness Day 2021

• Give a generous tip
• Donate clothes
• Pick up trash
• Volunteer
• Call a friend
• Send baked goods to a neighbor
• Pay for someone's toll at the toll booth

Celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Week

 

Random acts of kindness week is February 14 - 20, 2021 this year. Start preparing now on how you would like to celebrate &/or acts of kindness you would like to focus on. Don't just do it for week, make it a goal to do random acts of kindness all year long. 

If you go to https://www.randomactsofkindness.org you will see a ton of different ideas like monthly calendars with various random acts of kindness you can participate in, coloring pages, etc. I love the idea of a kindness jar and being aware of acts of kindness that is all around you. 

Try to get as many people as you can to celebrate random acts of kindness week and day. 

Here are a few ways to celebrate:

Involve your neighborhood. Post on your neighborhood Facebook and NextDoor pages to see who would like to participate. Do something nice for neighbors and neighbors in need. A few years ago one of my neighbors baked cookies for neighbors whose spouses had passed away and gave the cookies away on Valentine's Day.

Reward your employees for participating in random acts of kindness week /day. Make sure you recognize the good they are doing and pay it forward. 

Promote your company during random acts of kindness week / day. Do something good for the community and continue this all year round. 

Show your kids the importance of doing random acts of kindness. Kids lead by example and are sponges, so let them know how important it is to do good for others. Hopefully they follow in your footsteps.

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.

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
