The Joy of Spreading Random Acts of Kindness

There are many ways you can bring light and positivity to the world, one gesture at a time. Here are some ideas:

With Family, Friends and Neighbors

Surprise a friend or family member with a small treat on their “half-birthday.”
Call your local school district and offer to pay a child’s school-lunch debt.
Write a letter of encouragement to someone having a difficult time.
Donate flowers after an event to a nursing home.
When visiting new parents, bring their favorite meal and offer to take care of the baby while they relax and eat.
Help others out after a storm with snow removal and yard cleanup.

When Out and About

Leave a really big tip for a server in a restaurant, especially if you can see they are having a bad day.
Pick up and throw away trash you see left on a counter, table or floor.
Offer grace, kindness and patience to retail workers, and let them know when they are doing a great job.
Share encouraging words with a parent who is struggling with their child’s behavior.
Before you check out at a store, make sure your item has a price tag on it.
Offer to let someone cut in front of you in line at the store.

In the Community at Large

Donate blood.
Volunteer to be a translator for a community organization.
Bring extra produce from your garden and baked goods to a senior center.
Donate a new-owner kit to an animal shelter.
Attend a memorial service for a veteran.

In the Workplace

Check in with a new colleague every few days over their first month to see how they are doing.
If you hear a compliment about a co-worker, share it with them.
Send your co-worker a congratulatory note after they have finished a big report or presentation.
Bring in some healthy snacks for everyone to share.
