Happy Random Acts of Kindness Week! I hope you've brought an unexpected smile or two to someone else. If not, the week is not done! Need ideas? Check out www.helpothers.org - a portal dedicated to small acts of kindness.

Prize drawings were held last week. Congratulations to our winners!


Volunteerism:
This year we added a "volunteer work" category to our Losin' It program - and you can earn an extra 10 points for 10 hours. Not only can you make a difference in the community, you can increase your self-confidence, develop marketable skills, uncover hidden skills and talents, and make new friends!

VolunteerMatch is an online service that helps bring people and organizations together to strengthen the community. Here are some opportunities in our area:

As Muhammad Ali said, "Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on Earth."
