What’s Next?!
We see a need….. The need to make impact with kindness. We believe that kindness is contagious and good for us and inspiring consequences really do spiral when we do simple, compassionate acts for others without expecting anything back.
“Every act of kindness is like a pebble thrown in a pond sending out ripples far beyond where the pebble entered the water. When we are caring and kind to our neighbors, our actions send rings of kindness that spread from neighbor to neighbor to neighbor.” Angela Artemis
