Tell Us Your Kindness Story

Serving the Platypus

Most Autism parents can relate to what I call "the short list". This is a mental list of restaurants where we can go as a family and actually ENJOY ourselves. This is not to say restaurants post a "no special needs allowed" sign outside their door but, from what we've witnessed, they might as well. This story is not about the...

Who is the Kindness Junkie and why did she start 60 Seconds to Kindness?

Penpals with Kiddos

Raising Funds and Food

For about a year now, I've been helping out a Philadelphia soup kitchen called Grace Cafe. It's run by the Arch Street United Methodist Church in central Philly. I found out about it through a Philadelphia volunteering website. I was hooked on it from the first time I went. They give out around 200 meals every Sunday to those who...

Love through RAK

Had the privilege of doing a RAK with a small group of people from our Church this past Christmas. We randomly paid for people's groceries...best thing I've done in a while! We meet once a week to show love through some kind of RAK toward those who live in our Hartland community. 💕
