Uniting Through Kindness

It all starts with one act

Formally recognized in 1995, this seven-day celebration demonstrates that kindness is contagious. It all starts with one act – one smile, one coffee for a stranger, one favor for a friend. It’s an opportunity for participants to leave the world better than they found it and inspire others to do the same. –Random Acts of Kindness Foundation.

What began as a fun Random Acts of Kindness campaign last year turned into a heart warming sociology experiment.  We made 200 yellow envelopes stuffed with $5, and a note about Random Acts of Kindness. Our team passed these #NobleHourHigh5 envelopes out to people we caught ‘in the act’ of doing something kind; holding the door open for a stranger, going that extra mile for customer service, neighbors helping neighbors. Having the task of handing out these cards meant we opened our eyes, and looked for moments of good. And you know what we found? Acts of goodness were happening all around us. And Random Acts of Kindness are truly contagious.

Visit our Facebook page to share your #RAKweek2018 or #NobleHourHigh5 photos and to inspire others.

Michelle sells her paintings outside our building. Many people from NobleHour know her well. We buy her food, bagels or her favorite; french toast. At the end of Random Acts of Kindness week, we still had a number of cards left over. What better person than Michelle to receive the left over cards, to help her buy much needed antibiotics. And lucky Allison, got a beautiful painting out of it! Smiles all around.
