Kindness Ideas

How can you bring the kindness of God into our city? Here are some projects you can try for your Love Louisville outreach.

Where You Live:

• Take the neighbors' trash to the curb for them.
• Hand out bottles of water to people walking (works great in parks).
• Do yard work for senior adults or families.
• Throw a free block party.
• Give away potted plants.
• Hand out light bulbs or smoke detector batteries door-to-door.

Where You Notice Poverty:

• Pass out free groceries.
• Give away clothes or hold a free "yard sale."
• Grill free hot dogs.

Where You Shop:

• Offer to clean a small business's bathrooms.
• Pass out small bags of goodies, like candy and chips.

Where You Buy Gas:

• Give someone $2 (or $5) toward their purchase.
• Offer to wash windshields for free.

Other Ideas

Ask a leader in your community (school principal, neighborhood association president, mayor, etc.) how you can help them. Chances are, they'll be pleasantly surprised to hear from you—and give you some good ideas!
