Today is National Do Something Nice Day—a beautiful reminder that even the smallest act of kindness can make a world of difference. 🌎✨
At St. John Center, kindness looks like:
💙 Holding the door open for a guest
💙 Offering a listening ear
💙 Sharing a meal or a smile
💙 Supporting neighbors moving into housing
There are countless ways to spread kindness, and each one brings us closer to a community where everyone feels seen, valued, and cared for.
➡️ Looking for your act of kindness today? Volunteer, donate, or share our mission to help end homelessness. Together, we can make kindness ripple.
