It's easy to forget that sometimes the most rewarding thing we can do is to help someone else. It only takes a moment -a kind word or gesture- to brighten someone's day. That's it! Need inspiration? Try one of these ideas:

Write someone a letter, send them an email or text, or give them a phone call and...

• Tell them a joke to cheer them up
• Let them know why you are thankful for them
• Tell someone you haven’t talked to in a while that you’re still thinking about them
• Send them an inspiring quote

For extra inspiration, visit the Send a Postcard square.

Do something nice for someone in your community they'll never see coming...

• Send someone a gift/meal or drop it off on their porch.
• Leave a snack or note for the mail carrier or delivery person
• Mow the lawn for your neighbors or water their flowers
• Leave a kindness rock for someone to find, or stop by the Make a Friendship Bracelet square to create an individualized gift for someone you care about.
• Smile and wave

It's easy to take those we see every day for granted. Surprise them and...

• Help with a household chore
• Give someone in your household a compliment
• Make someone in your household breakfast in bed
• Say thank you
