Acts of Kindness: #HashtagLunchbag Edition

Social media has really changed the way we hear about news, products, events and more. That's how I heard about #HashtagLunchbag and I knew that I wanted to get more involved. My 25th Birthday was approaching and this was the perfect opportunity to skip that fancy dinner and instead help out our community. This idea also sprouted into other random acts of kindness the entire birthday month. First item on the agenda: I rallied up some friends & family and they were all so eager to help. I never doubted that for a second because they are all equally awesome and have hearts of gold! #Squad

Then the next task... conquering COSTCO! Everyone offered to bring an assortment of snacks so that helped out a ton! Back home, we setup stations to make sandwiches, snack bags and encouraging notes. Speaking of notes, my bonus nephew Mayson, has the biggest heart. He took care of drawing on all of the note cards and he couldn't wait to pass out lunch bags. My heart just melts with this sweet kid!
Okay moving on, we headed out to Anaheim & Santa Ana to distribute lunches and we ran into other groups who were passing out desserts & hot meals. It was so awesome to see the community working together! Here are a few shots from that day:

Carrie Underwood released a song several years ago called "Change" and the lyrics really spoke to me:

The world's so big, it can break your heart
And you just want to help, not sure where to start
So you close your eyes
And send up a prayer into the dark

"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"
Don't listen to them when they say
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"
Oh, the smallest thing can make all the difference
Love is alive, don't listen to them when they say
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"

Believe that you can make a difference, big or small!
