Day 6: Game Donation
Do you like to play games? Do you have a favorite board game? Connect Four, Monopoly, and Battleship have been a few of my favorites since childhood.

We can, however, write from the heart. Today, that is exactly what we did. Day 2 of our 25… Continue reading Day 2: Poetic Gesture
Day 1: Treat A Stranger
We kicked off the 25 Days of Giving today with a random act of kindness. We took time to randomly treat a stranger to a beverage. This act, though very simple, can have a huge impact. I know this firsthand. In February, we participated in Random Acts of Kindness Week as our week 39 volunteer… Continue reading Day 1: Treat A Stranger
