Campaign for Kindness

 This is a challenging year.  We have our professional struggles with how to handle the learning options, the social distancing, the mask breaks, the wiping down of desks, etc.  But then we go home at night and we have personal struggles as well - balancing family needs and others (grad school for me).

That's why I'm choosing to start a campaign for kindness.  Kindness never goes out of style and you can never have too much of it, so I might as well spread it thick like nutella!  Will you join me in my campaign for kindness and be an ambassador?

I was inspired by the pink sticky notes on desks, doors, computers that someone put around after school at the middle school.  I heard and saw the positivity that this created both when people talked to each other or mentioned how it brightened their day on social media.  One small act.



With this in mind, I'm going to let people know what they mean to Warrior Run.  I have "You Matter" cards that need to be spread around.  I have some ready to go - if you want a set to share with others, sign up for a pack here.  When you see a student, teacher, paraprofessional, administrator, parent struggling, slip them a card.  Let them know they matter.  Keep it a secret or do it directly - that's up to you.

For the month of November, I plan to express my gratitude for the myriad of blessings in my life.  I will be writing thank you cards weekly to those that need recognition the most - everyone!  If you would like 4 thank you cards to join me, please sign up for a pack here.

Spread the word by emailing this blog post to another WR employee.  Let's create a campaign of kindness.
