20 People Who Wake Up in the Morning to Make This Planet a Better Place

Of all the different ways we express ourselves, kindness is definitely one of the most powerful ones. It is through kindness that we express care, concern, consideration, and love. In a busy world filled with so many challenges, stories of those who offer a word of encouragement, a smile, or their time, refresh us with goodness.

We at Bright Side believe that people who take the time to be amazing are definitely worth being noticed, so we gathered some moments to share with you.

1. A woman donated her hair to a foundation that works with sick people suffering from hair loss.

2. A woman opened “grocery store” with free products for struggling families, and it even has an app that lets people order stuff ahead of time.

3. This dad went online to give free advice to anyone who needs, well, dad advice.

Rob Kenney is the creator of a YouTube channel called “Dad, how do I?” His content covers lots of topics, like teaching how to tie a tie, how to shave for the first time, how to restore a bike, and he even reads children’s books. His own father left when he was a teenager, and he says he is trying to give the stuff he missed the most while growing up. The channel has almost 4 million subscribers and some great feedback from people all around the world.

Reminds me of my son,” while loading his food tray with extra food. He was so touched by her kind words, he shared his food tray picture describing himself crying in the workroom during lunch.

A single dad got his Jeep stolen, and he posted on Facebook groups asking for help recovering it. When it was finally recovered, it was really filthy and could not be used safely.

Instead of having a party on his twenty-third birthday, this guy, Lewis Mitchell, decided to do 23 random acts of kindness. He went from writing personalized letters to his friends and teachers, helping strangers load their groceries, and putting money on expired parking meters to giving random hugs throughout the day, telling someone they looked beautiful, and volunteering at the local retirement center for 2.5 hours. It was a full day.

20. “I lost my wallet. These boys found it and wouldn’t accept any reward. People are good!”
