As we conclude the month of Kindvember, we invite you to continue scattering kindness throughout the community! 

Each year, as part of National Hospice and Palliative Care Month, we celebrate Kindvember® in November. This initiative recognizes and honors kindness, one of our key mission values, and its importance in everything we do.    

We are inspired by a quote from Lucius Annaeus Seneca: “Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for a kindness.”    

When someone does something kind for another person, the recipient of the act of kindness often feels grateful and encouraged to spread kindness to others.  

When you scatter kindness among others in your community, you increase your sense of connectivity with others and increase your own happiness. But more importantly, you make a difference in someone else’s life.   

As we conclude Kindvember, we invite the community to continue to Scatter Kindness™ any way you can. It is important to be kind to others, including loved ones, neighbors, friends, co-workers, and yourself.  

Below are some ideas on how you can Scatter Kindness throughout this last week of Kindvember:   

• Practice mindfulness.   
• Look for a volunteer opportunity in your community.  
• Leave a positive note in a random place.   
• Share your favorite way to show kindness on social media.  #kindvember 
• Spend time with friends and family.   
• Bring someone a special treat. 
• Write an encouraging note for yourself to open at a later date. 

Thank you for helping us Scatter Kindness across the state of Ohio in the communities we are honored and privileged to serve!
