Random Acts of Kindness and Other Ways to Show You Care.

Smile, say hello, give a hug, offer help 

Assist someone in the grocery store:

Sometimes we might see a person that is disabled or for some reason has to use a motorized chair to do shopping.  Many times it is hard or impossible for this person to reach items on upper shelves. Getting these items for them is huge. Not only is this helpful, but it is appreciated.

Help an elderly person get onto the bus.  Being patient while this person finds and pays for bus fare.

Send a card to someone who is going through a difficult time. This may be a time of dealing with the loss of a loved one or friend.  This time may be a time of dealing with a health diagnosis.  Receiving a card can be uplifting and encouraging to most.

Offer to pick up items at the pharmacist or store to someone who cannot do this themselves. 

Cut the grass for a neighbor or someone who does not have a lawn mower.  Shovel snow for the elderly.

Give a hug and ask how are you.

Say Please and Thank you.

Hold the door and let another person go through the door before you

Listen without interrupting.  Sometimes, a person only wants someone to listen to them.

Spend time with the lonely and people who live alone.
