What is World Kindness Day 2023?
World Kindness Day, from the World Kindness Movement, is an universal awareness day about promoting the importance of being kind to each other, to yourself, and to the world, and is celebrated on the 13th of November every year.
It is a reminder that all simple acts of kindness have power and that together, we can all work to create a kinder world. Every kind act, even the smallest one, creates a ripple effect, that is bigger than you could ever imagine.
