By: Suzanne Roberts, D'Evelyn Social Emotional Learning Specialist Exciting news, my friends ~ this week is Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) Week! And Friday, the 17th, is Random Acts of Kindness Day!
This provides us with an opportunity this week to join others who have also decided to make it an intention to be kind to themselves and others. While many of us want to be kind whenever possible, it can also be fun to join in with others who are also working toward a common goal. What we have learned over time about engaging in Random Acts of Kindness is that it greatly benefits both the giver and receiver of kindness, as well as others who may witness the kindness shared! This short video shares this and other health and well-being benefits. If you are interested in learning more about the history of Random Acts of Kindness Day, please check out the KIND Blog. Here you can learn that history and find other interesting posts about kindness. If you need some ideas for RAK Week, check out the RAK Foundation’s Kindness Ideas page. So, join us - think of something kind you can do for yourself as well as something kind you can do for those you know and those you may not know! Share a smile, hold a door, pay a compliment, or share gratitude,... Have a fun and a mutually beneficial Random Acts of Kindness Week! Comments are closed.
