Kindness has a ripple effect that can reach many people. Small acts of kindness can lead to bigger positive impacts.

During Kindness Week, let's make an effort to do small acts of kindness every day. These acts not only brighten someone else's day but also bring us joy and satisfaction.
I will share different kindness challenge ideas each day of Kindness Week. These challenges, like leaving a note for a coworker or giving a compliment to a stranger, are easy to do and make a difference.
We will host daily polls and ask questions to encourage conversations about kindness. These interactions aim to create a community that values and practices kindness every day.
