We are joining Guaranteed Rate Affinity in participating in their Random Acts of Kindness week, and we’d love if you joined us, too!

Small kindnesses. Big impacts.

We’ve all had moments when a simple kindness – often from a stranger – made a huge difference in our lives.  Here is a list of 20 simple, easy random acts of kindness. Try one! And when you do, please share it on social media with #guaranteedkindness. Together, there’s so much good we can do.
