Tell Us Your Kindness Story

The Cats

I have always loved animals. In fact my parents are vegan and me and my sister are vegetarians. I used to go over to my neighbors houses and take care of their cats and dogs. However, my neighbor right behind me needed a favor. I had to wake up at 6 o'clock every morning to go feed their two outdoor...

Thank you

One time I had a friend and he gifted me the Fortnite item shop. I was screaming so excited, I kept saying thank you and I was so thankful.

Karma's Sometimes Kind

I don't have my own income yet, and still live with my grandparents. I went into the grocery store alone for the first time ever with five dollars, in order to get my grandparents a bag of ice. At the checkout line, I saw a candy that looked really good, so I put it on the conveyor belt with the...
