Ten days ago my wallet was stolen and a bad experience turned into a great confirmation of the kindness of people. I was (positively) overwhelmed by offers of help from friends and people I didn’t know so well. From train passes to offering to buy me lunch, to kind words, people came through when I needed them. I was reminded of the little things people do for each other every day to strengthen friendships and communities.
And it just so happens that now I have the opportunity to give back, and more that just that, I have the opportunity to make a call to you all to join us in making our communitites better through simple, small and random acts of kindness.
And in case you need more reasons to join in, Meatheads Burgers & Fries have committed to donate $0.25 for each pledged act of kindness, to Aspire.
It doesn’t stop here, we are looking to collect 10,000 pledges of acts of kindness.
So help us and pledge your act of kindness today:
- Tweet your act of kindness with the hash tag #meatheadsact
- Post on our Facebook wall or
- Email us at act[at]meatheadsburgers.com(13017 KB)
No act is too small, hug a stranger, give someone a flower, smile at everyone for a day to bring joy to their lives.
Join us, in small or big ways to improve our communities through random acts of kindness.
Between Feb. 28 and April 22 I will be blogging about my adventures in random acts of kindness. I am psyched about the opportunities!
Who’s with me?
