February 17 was National Random Acts of Kindness Day, and CAHS’ Social Media Director Samia Taylor went into the community, demonstrating acts of kindness that make a positive difference in how people feel about themselves. As Samia gave compliments, presented bouquets of flowers, and paid for gasoline, the surprised recipients shared their gratitude and smiles in return. Research shows that helping others can reduce stress, improve emotional well-being, and improve physical health.
