The week is an invitation for individuals, schools, community groups, service clubs, businesses, health institutions, schools and churches to join hearts and hands to create a better world.  Remember, you can do these acts on your own, or as a part of a group:
* Offer to help your neighbor weed their garden or mow their lawn.
* Instead of buying a pet, adopt an abandoned animal from a shelter.
* Volunteer to read to kids at your local library.
* Say something nice to everyone you meet today.
* Give a bag of groceries to a homeless person.
* Send a friend an anonymous gift.
* Pay the entrance fee for another family at your local pool or the movies.
* Help an elderly neighbor with their household chores.
* Volunteer at your local youth centre.
* Donate blood.
* Send a card to a lonely person.
* When visiting a hospital, spend a few minutes with someone who doesn't have any visitors.
* Smile at people you don't know.
* Be kind to the environment by recycling, or use a clothesline rather than a dryer.
* Donate money to a cause.
* Be a friend to a new colleague.
