Lee’s Summit Celebrates Take Time To Be Kind Week

Lee’s Summit Celebrates Take Time To Be Kind Week

The City of Lee's Summit's Human Relations Commission is promoting kindness in the community during Take Time To Be Kind Week, Feb. 10-15. Community members are encouraged to perform random and purposeful acts of kindness to promote positivity.

These acts can be as simple as writing a letter of appreciation, giving a small care package to a co-worker, volunteering at a local organization or practicing self-care through journaling. The public is asked to share their acts of kindness on social media using #LSKindness.

The Human Relations Commission will host activities, including a Gratitude Station and a Kindness Passport. Community members are invited to visit the Gratitude Station in the lobby of City Hall during business hours to create cards and signs with thoughtful messages that they can share to spread kindness and appreciation throughout the community. The Kindness Passport is a fun and interactive way the community can participate in Take Time To Be Kind Week. By completing acts of kindness and filling in the bingo-style card, participants can spread kindness through simple gestures, from helping a neighbor to writing a gratitude note. Kindness Passports can be turned in at the end of the week at City Hall and entered in a drawing for prizes. Passports are available at City Hall and online at LSKindness.net.

Even small gestures can significantly impact someone's day. Take Time To Be Kind Week aims to spread happiness, promote positivity and make a lasting impact on the Lee's Summit community.
