#3 Every Single Act Of Kindness Matters
While preparing the sandwiches, the teacher told their students that the food that they are preparing would be able to fill someone's stomach that day. Many of the students were surprised by the news. They didn't realize until then that it is this easy to help someone.
#4 Kindness Spreads Kindness
Talking about it, one student commented, "It actually really wasn’t that hard — anyone can do this. Other kids can do their part to help in their communities. They could volunteer at a soup kitchen. They could do what we did [and] make sandwiches for people that don’t have any. They could do fundraisers. Kindness spreads kindness."
