Spreading Sunshine Project
With my Spreading Sunshine Project, I give handwritten inspirational cards to those who need of a ray of sunshine in their life! Previous recipients have been a children's hospital, homeless facility, domestic violence victims, and seniors in need.
If you have a recommendation for a facility or organization that would like to be a recipient, please contact me!
Community Kindness
Spreading Sunshine Project
Spreading Sunshine Project
I create and distribute Kindness Kits randomly. I give them to individuals who were lovely to chat with, who provided great customer service or who needed a little pick-me-up.
Kindness to the Community is about actively giving back to the community, directly or through non-profit organizations. This includes donations, volunteering and giving thanks and recognition.
Love 4 Paws

Love 4 Paws
For my Love 4 Paws project, I continuously collect dog and cat food donations. Or gift cards to PetSmart or Petco. Donations are used to feed hungry animals in the community and to contribute to Bakersfield Pet Food Pantry.
