It's a wrap for another amazing Random Acts of Kindness Week (Feb 9-15) and RAK Day (Feb 17). We celebrated with fun initiatives, reinforcing that kindness isn’t just a one-time effort—it’s a daily commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of those around us.
Secret Agents of Kindness & Kindness Rocks
Our team embraced secret kindness missions, coming up with creative and meaningful ways to brighten a co-worker’s day. One of our favorite projects was crafting kindness rocks during lunch hour, each painted with words of encouragement and positivity. Even our patients joined in, picking up kindness rocks to share with others and contributing their own acts of kindness, proving that kindness is contagious in the best way possible.
Random Acts of Kindness Day – In Memory of Tony (1966-2021)
February 17th holds special meaning for our clinic. It’s a day we dedicate to honouring Tony, a remarkable individual who truly embodied kindness. On what would have been his 59th birthday, we were expecting to place kindness rocks throughout the community in his memory, hoping to inspire others just as he inspired us. Though freezing rain delayed this activity, these beautiful rocks will soon be making their way around Halifax.
