This year’s Random Acts of Kindness Week was in February so we have missed it for this year. There is a World Kindness Week coming up in November, 13th to 19th, though, and we’ll start preparing for that later on. The www.actsofkindness.org website, albeit American, might be a good starting point if you are interested in reading up about this.
I found that www.fishpond.co.nz has a book for sale called Random Acts of Kindness: 365 Ways To Make the World a Nicer Place by Danny Wallace. “This book contains 365 real random acts of kindness real people have done for real strangers…so read it, learn it, and start making your world the nicer place, today!”
(I myself was wondering if I ever do any RAOK’s, and came up with not a hell of a lot.. Does buying doughnuts to your other half count as one?? 
So there’s definitely room for LOTS of improvement here!)
Last year I heard that a colleague of ours had received a cruise for two in the Caribbean, or perhaps Mexico, as part of a RAOK promotion! It may have been by the local newspaper, from memory. She and her mother have had lots of health problems and the cruise came at a really good time to cheer them up, although unfortunately the mother cannot make it to the trip now as her health has further deteriorated. A case of the thought counting, this one.
