In honor of National "I Want You to Be Happy Day" on March 3rd, we've compiled a list of 20 Random Acts of Kindness to inspire you to go out of your way to make someone else's day better. We thought it was only fitting that we, Made With Happy, take on this challenge and begin spreading kindness and happiness.
You can also find some great random acts in our kindness bingo.
