Doesn’t it seem like 2019 has been a rough start for a lot of people? So many people that I know have been dealing with bad weather, illness, and even deaths of loved ones. In the immortal words of American lyricist Hal David–“what the world needs now is love, sweet love; it’s the only thing that there’s just too little of“. If 2019 has been rough for you what better way to turn it around than by spreading some sunshine with some acts of kindness printables?
When I was creating these acts of kindness printables I was looking for a way to go an act of service in someone’s name. Lately I’ve heard so many people say that they wish they knew how to honor a loved one that passed. I think one of the best ways to memorialize a loved one is by spreading sunshine and doing good in their name. That’s why on these little acts of kindness printables there are spots to write down a name or hashtag. Personally, our recent acts of kindness were inspired by Julia Valean’s sweet angel girl Evy.
Here are some ideas for random acts of kindness to get you started:
- Purchase some Redbox codes and leave them on Redbox kiosks around town.
- Deliver baked goods to neighbors or your local police and fire stations.
- Pay for the person’s order behind you in the fast food line.
- Help a parent in a store who is struggling with their children.
- Purchase a bouquet of flowers and hand out individual stems at a public place, or leave them on people’s windshields.
- Put together “blessings bags” for homeless people you come across.

I love this so much. So, so, so much. I’d love to plan an actual activity with my girls so that we can do this whole-heartedly.
I think this is such a wonderful way to honor the memory and sunshine of someone else! What a fantastic way to pay little bits of love forward.
Such a great idea! I love that you included a space to honor a loved one too. Definitely going to print these out and pay it forward!
This is such a lovely way to honor the memory of a loved one while making the world a little bit better, too. Hopefully, the person who receives the act of kindness pays it forward, too!
This is such a sweet idea and I bet this could really help someone through the grieving process. Making the world a better place and remembering a loved one at the same time is just a wonderful idea.
I love this idea so much and you made me think of how many little things we can do to help others. Thank you x
I have been looking for a way to honor my son who passed 11/11/17. I am serving food and putting together Blessing bags for the homeless to honor his compassionate heart. I wanted a way to acknowledge him as the reason behind the act of service. Putting together bags and creating these cards has helped relieve some of my anxiety and sadness as I deal with the upcoming anniversary of his accident. My son,,,,forever 23 🙁
I am so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you have found a very wonderful and meaningful way to honor him. I wish you the best and am praying for your family.
