This February, Cooper is celebrating our second annual Random Acts of Kindness initiative. Did you know that there are scientifically proven benefits to being kind? Kindness can decrease stress, anxiety, pain – even lower our blood pressure. Wondering how to participate? It’s easy! Check out our page for ideas and to request a bag of kindness coins here.
Kindness coins are a tangible symbol of acknowledgement and appreciation. The receiver of a coin can either keep it (some coins have holes and team members have clipped them behind their badges) or, ideally, pass it along to the next individual they encounter engaging in a random act of kindness. The coins are intended to spread kindness by inspiring additional kind acts. The coins say, “Pass it on!” and have phrases like:
- Thank you for everything. Token of appreciation.
- You made me smile.
- Thank you for your kindness. You took the time to show you care.
- Kind: caring, thoughtful, bright, generous … That’s you!
If you’ve witnessed, taken part in, or been the recipient of a random act of kindness, we want to hear about it! Post about your experience on Pulse+.
