World Kindness Day at MorningStar Senior Living
Small acts of kindness go a long way, and what better way to celebrate that than on World Kindness Day?
At MorningStar Senior Living, kindness is one of our core values. Today and every day, we look for opportunities to shine a light, make someone smile, and pour out joy in any way we can. Our team members continually live out our culture of Radiance and embody kindness by the way they love and serve our residents – staying attentive to both their expressed and unexpressed desires, going above and beyond in providing them personalized care, and creating memorable WOW moments for all those beneath our roof.
This World Kindness Day, our communities are going the extra mile to spread some cheer. Team members are planning special gatherings with festive drinks and live music for our residents to enjoy, creating homemade cards with encouraging messages for one another, crafting beautiful “Be Kind” bracelets for all to wear, passing out sweet treats and candy grams, and much more.
Beyond sharing kindness with those within our walls, our team members and residents look for ways to make a difference in our cities by serving with a local nonprofit. Whether it be making sandwiches for the hungry, volunteering at a homeless shelter or soup kitchen, doing yard work for a senior in need, or anything in between, we are grateful to be a blessing to the cities we call home.
We find that when we give, our cup is filled more than we ever expected. Volunteering not only blesses the one who is served, but it further empowers a servant-heart within our team members, connects our residents with a deeper sense of purpose, and brings us all closer together as we work with a common goal in mind.
Our teams have a heart to give back to each other, to our residents, and to those in need around them. Our challenge for you today is to ask yourself how you can spread some extra kindness. Maybe it’s paying for the Starbucks order of the person in line behind you, giving a hand-written note to a coworker or family member telling them how appreciated they are, or bringing a friend their favorite snack just because. Whatever it may be, we will be right there with you, spreading smiles and savoring joy, one act of kindness at a time.
