National Do Something Nice Day
Do something nice day isn’t until October 5th, but here’s a chance today to start the ball rolling. Many of us have our regular routines of helping a stranger or volunteering. Maybe you drop off donations of clothing, etc. Then there are the monetary donations before December 31st. In Charlotte, North Carolina U.S. Bank is hosting a neighborhood book drive for us to drop off those cool books we have stuffed in the closet collecting dust. Let’s drop off at one of the five Little Free Libraries in Southend. It’s the brainchild created by Glen and Maria Nocik at ACSM and C3 Lab, located in the Charlotte Urban Design Center, located at 1100 South, MAA 1225, SILOS, and The Hub at South End.
Whatever city you live in there’s probably something of this nature going on, and it’s the perfect time to get us into the holiday spirit of giving. This little world we live in can feed, clothe, and share the wealth, only if we get into that mindset. Yes, we’re a notorious dog-eat-dog society, but we can turn it around before it’s too late for all of us. Since we can’t take our treasures with us, why not share them with perfect strangers? Hoping you have a caring and sharing heart for those who would be extremely appreciative of your efforts.
