About National Do Something Nice Day
Today is National Do Something Nice Day!
Pay it forward today with an act of kindness to either a stranger or a friend or family member. Pay for the coffee order behind you in line, or simply give someone walking by with a compliment.
You could even sign up as a volunteer for an organization in your community, help someone carry their groceries to their car or remind family members that you love and care for them.
It is no secret that we should all be nice toward one another every day of the year, but take today to make sure positivity is spread far and wide. You never know who may need it.
