GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (ABC 4)- Wednesday, Nov. 13, is World Kindness Day, “a global reminder of how small acts of kindness can create a ripple effect that strengthens our connections to one another.”

Here in West Michigan, BIGGBY COFFEE is strengthening community connections through cups of coffee!

Recently, BIGGBY COFFEE and Maranda teamed up to hand out BIGGBY COFFEE gift cards to local organizations and partners, proving good deeds despite how large or small, go a long way.

Look at these smiles!

To discuss the importance and benefits of being kind, Brooke Jevicks with Wedgwood Christian Services, joins Maranda at BIGGBY COFFEE.

“There are a ton of benefits to being kind. We all know that we need that in today’s world,” said Jevicks. “Random acts of kindness is awesome to those who you’re spreading that cheer to, but you’re also being kind to yourself when you’re being kind to others.”

Cheers to making a difference through kindness, “Where You Live!”
