With Gifts By You I aim to inspire happiness and kindness through the act of giving. Why? Well for me there really isn't anything quite like the feeling of fulfilment and happiness that you get from being kind.
So you can imagine how much I love taking part in the annual Random Acts of Kindness Day on 17th February.
This day is dedicated to inspiring people to perform acts of kindness without any specific reason or expectation in return. No gesture is too small, with even the simplest effort you can make a significant difference in someone's day and foster a sense of connection and goodwill within society.
There are lots of ways that you can take part in this day, but here are a few examples to get you going:
Genuinely complement a stranger
Send message of appreciation to someone
Buy a coffee for the person behind you in the queue
Support a small business
Leave a review for a small business
Give a care pack to someone in need
Run an errand for a neighbour/friend in need
Babysit for your friend
Add a pay it forward voucher to the wall at DC Coffee, Fourways
Leave a generous tip for a waiter
Offer a lift to someone
Give away flowers to random people
Smile at everyone you see for a day
Make a playlist for a friend.
Reach out to someone you know who might be struggling.
So why not give it a try and let's cultivate a culture of generosity and goodwill that can have a ripple effect, inspiring others to pay it forward.
