NATIONAL RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS WEEK
During the week of February 17th, National Random Acts of Kindness Week encourages us to put kindness first and share it everywhere we go. Everyone needs a little kindness sometimes, and we never know when to expect it. Be the unexpected gift to someone this week.
