Grateful to volunteer again at the Give SevenDays Annual Kindness Breakfast. Two years in and the energy in that room still gets me.

The Kindness Youth Leadership Team is one of my favorite parts. Young people choosing to lead with kindness, on purpose, with intention. That's where my hope for the future lives.

PLEASE:
Simply be kind. It costs nothing and means everything.
