Kindness comes in many forms from donating your time or money to baking for a neighbor or helping someone with their groceries. Small acts like sending a thank-you card or giving a compliment can make a big difference in someone's day. #RandomActsOfKindnessDay #ItTakesAVillage

These are things we can do to help people you might see rough sleeping in the cold weather as the temperature drops again tonight.
