Being kind is as easy as complimenting someone on a job well done or donating cans of food to a food drive. This year, November 12th through November 18th is World Kindness Week.
World Kindness Day occurs during World Kindness Week on November 13th. To help celebrate both World Kindness Week and World Kindness Day, the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation provides a great list of kind acts that all of us can do to extend more kindness to others.
The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation has put together a kindness idea guide with hundreds of different ideas of ways to be kind. Some of the ideas listed in the guide include kindness for schools, kindness for your neighborhood, and even kindness for animals.
The foundation’s website features customizable e-cards. The kindness e-card is a free service for anyone who might like to create a card and write a nice message that can be sent to family and friends. The e-cards will make for a pleasant surprise to anyone who receives one.
If you have an idea for a project that would help spread kindness the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation offers you the chance to share that idea with the world. The foundation will help you create a five page website to describe and document your kindness project. People can come to your site and comment on your project.
Being kind makes you feel good. World Kindness Week and World Kindness Day should not just be celebrated once a year but everyday. So get out there and put a smile on someone’s face because it will put a smile on yours.
