Powering Kindness, Twelve Of Our Favourite Random Acts Of Kindness

If you haven't heard about Powering Kindness week, you really need to get involved. The lovely people over at Electric Ireland are donating a substantial amount of money to various charities and all they are asking you to do is tell them about your good deeds and random acts of kindness. When you log the good deeds on to the Powering Kindness website, all you have to do is pick the charity you would prefer to see get the most amount of money, all of which are extremely deserving. Electric Ireland then got us thinking about some of our favourite acts of kindness that we have seen over the years on the site. Some of these are just amazing. 1. This note left for a veteran's girlfriend. A passer-by noticed a sticker on the back of her car which said "my heart is in Afghanistan" and decided to leave a note with some money instructing her to take her boyfriend out for dinner when he returns home. 2. This tip left for this waitress. The lady who received the tip had told the customer about her dream of travelling to Italy. 3. The volunteers who will help one child become Batman. The population of San Francisco will help this kid become Batman for a day as part of a Make-A-Wish event. 4. This viral video Random acts of kindness everywhere! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGEiA80ZL08 5. This Bus Driver He stopped his bus and helped a woman who was about to jump off the bridge.
