25 Days Of Holiday Volunteering — Day 24: 52 Acts Of Kindness

TARRYTOWN, NY — 'Tis the season for giving back to your community. There are a number of ways that you and your family can help out and help others.

Every day through Christmas, Patch will be highlighting a way you can provide compassion and resources to those in need.

Volunteer New York! makes it easy to find ways to help — through donations, supporting nonprofits and even volunteering at home.

Today's opportunity is 52 Acts of Kindness Project. Volunteer New York! said that acts of kindness don't need to be big. Even the smallest act can help brighten a person's day and create positivity, gratitude and connectedness.

Volunteers of all ages are needed to do 52 acts of kindness — the same act 52 times, 52 different ones or a combination.

Examples of acts of kindness include returning a shopping cart to the cart area, writing a letter to deployed military personnel, shoveling snow from a neighbor's driveway and picking up trash in your community.
