#addhappy Notes:
Write an impromptu note to a special friend, teacher, child, or parent and add happy to your community through everyday acts of kindness. The unexpected notes encourage the notion that small gestures can create a huge impact because one smile can go a long way!
Caring Cards:
If you’re passionate about art, crafting, or writing you can send your creations to a person working through a challenge! Make a homemade card for a person at a homeless shelter or rescue mission. Add happy every day by sending positivity! With a caring card, you’re brightening someone’s day in a unique way. Find a shelter near you here: Homeless Shelter Directory USA
