You Are Cordially Invited To Join the Ministry of Kindness

Consider this your open invitation to the Ministry of Kindness! What is the Ministry of Kindness? It’s this thing I created to spread kindness through creativity. Inspired by organizations like Random Acts and More Love Letters, I believe that you can make someone’s day by doing an act of kindness. The best way to do that is by using some creativity! Here are some ways to join the Ministry of Kindness:

1.       Dress up as a superhero, a princess, a knight, or anything like that and visit kids in the hospital! While you’re there you can give out gifts, flowers, or put on a puppet show.
2.       Leave a little encouraging note for someone to find, More Love Letters style.
3.       Give out flowers to random people you meet during the day.
4.       Give out balloons (who doesn’t love balloons?)

You don’t have to spend a ton of money. That’s where the creativity comes in. Think of kind things you can do that are simple and can be done just about anywhere. Besides visiting a children’s hospital, these are things that can be done anywhere. At the park, on the street, in the coffee shop, on your college campus. Sure, these things aren’t going to solve any major problems. We’re not going to find a cure to anything. We’re not going to solve world hunger or end poverty. We can make someone’s day better, though, and that is an amazing feat in itself.

Also, please remember that we are trying to help someone have a better day. If someone asks you to stop or doesn’t want to accept your act, please respect their wishes. Everyone has different beliefs and may not necessarily agree with what you are doing. Don’t let that discourage you from trying again though!

Be sure to stay tuned for inspiration and craft & DIY tutorials for things that can be used for your acts of kindness!
