The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank, build a free community library for your street, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
This month’s theme also coincides with Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is coming up on September 1st.
Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

“I am 83 living alone. My neighbours Grant and Annette Phillips were wonderful during the lockdown, getting my shopping and taking me to the dentist when I broke my dentures and had no way of getting them mended. When I needed help in an emergency they were there for me reattaching the connections under my bed which I could not get to.They have taken me to doctors appointments and helped when I needed help in the house after a fall and when my Medic Alarm has been activated.”
Hi All, I have updated my sign at Hawkes Bay Golf Club on hole No.2. Come and have a round, HBGC is arguably the best draining course in winter! Carts are available. Just watch the Out of Bounds on the left of this hole, there is a fence up now, so if you hit your ball out there, its gone!!
Cheers,… View moreHi All, I have updated my sign at Hawkes Bay Golf Club on hole No.2. Come and have a round, HBGC is arguably the best draining course in winter! Carts are available.

Have looked at the main outlets for hardware but they all seem to be mainly hanging types and we don't have enough trees at a decent height. Don't want something expensive either - it's too easy to go overboard with fancy stuff that may not really be needed
Any help would be appreciated
