12 Months of Kindness Challenge 2010

We are going back at it again- our 12 months of Kindness challenge for the year.  We've kept a few from last year and added on some new ones.  As you'll notice, some of our months require some planning (November), some require support from our family& friends (March, July) and others require almost no time/money at all (June- we'll be saving money!)

I hope by posting our list it inspires others to challenge themselves to 12 random acts of kindness; 1 a month!
