π CHOOSE KINDNESS | WEEK 10 π
Small actions can make a BIG difference! This week, weβre challenging our Tigers to be intentional about showing kindnessβinclude someone, lend a helping hand, speak with respect, and find a way to brighten someoneβs day.
It doesnβt have to be something big. Sometimes the smallest act of kindness is the one someone remembers the most. π―π
Choose kindness. Make an impact. Be the reason someone has a better day.
