Simply Kind Tuesdays : Week 46 : Kindness cards.

This two minute video shares an interesting idea. What if you used a card to indicate that you had just given someone an anonymous act of kindness? These cute cards encourage that person to, in turn, do something nice for someone else. You could start a revolution in your own home town.

Unfortunately, they will only ship within Australia, but luckily there are a number of websites where you can print your own cards.

  • Here you can print kindness quotes onto stickers which you can add to the backs of your letters or cards. You never know what might happen.
  • On the One Act of Kindness site, you are able to print ‘One Act of Kindness’ Cards. These cards encourage reciprocity as well and a connection to the site.
  • Chris Dumure designed these beautiful acts of kindness cards. They are available for you to print out at The Gift of Kindness site has posters and cards you can print out and use.

I’m not sure I would ever use a kindness card.  While I get the benefit of encouraging people to continue the kindness, it feels a little artificial to me. What about you? Would you add a card with your kind act?

    I’m with you I doubt I would ever use a kindness card. I feel that if I do an act of kindness anonymously that it will be passed on from the person who benefited from my act. At least that is what I hope.
