As I have mentioned in multiple past posts, random acts of kindness provide a benefit to the giver, the receiver, and those who observe the kindness act. That concept is a major fact that motivated me to create weekday daily positive impact articles. I have also previously shared the following medical rationale for these articles. A Summa Health study in 2022 titled How Random Acts of Kindness Can Benefit Your Health stated: “Witnessing acts of kindness produces Oxytocin, which aids in lowering blood pressure and improving our overall heart-health. Oxytocin also increases self-esteem and optimism.”
The non-profit random acts organization – https://www.randomacts.org/ – Mission Statement states:
“Random Acts inspires acts of kindness around the world, both big and small. We provide a vast network of caring people with the encouragement and support they need to change lives for the better.
All of these acts of kindness contribute to a bigger story, a message that Random Acts embodies and promotes — that you too can conquer the world one random act of kindness at a time.”
Regarding Akila’s story in the graphic, “Sharing the need to read! At the start of this school semester, Akila helped promote reading and writing at a local library. Her Random Act of Kindness was to provide books, notebooks, and pencils for children and teenagers to take home with them.
Feeling inspired? Here are some other great ways to promote literacy through Random Acts of Kindness!
-Help refill the Little Libraries (or make one!) in your neighborhood
-Donate your unused books to your local library
-Sign up for a volunteer reading program
Need help making your Random Act of Kindness a reality? We can help you with that! Go to randomacts.org to learn more.”
This amazing organization funded 485 initiatives around the world in 2022 that included Providing After Surgery Support in Belgium.
Since you are reading about having positive impact this organization is definitely worth a look. I do not receive any monetary benefit from referring readers to their website.

100% of the revenue from the sale of my 3 books goes to organizations supporting the themes of those books: lessening instances of sexual assault and bullying (Dawn of Hope), lessening deaths by tobacco (Dawn of the Tobacco Wars), and increasing instances of positive impact (mentioned above).
