Klara in Frisco:

Hi Mrs. Damm, I hope you are doing well and have had a good weekend. I wanted to share that my friend Amy and I have decided to do a small act of kindness. We know that this is a hard time in the world, so we wanted to spread some positivity. We made over 250 index cards with an uplifting message on each and put them on people's front doors. It was so much fun and it brought a smile to a few faces, including ours. Thank you for letting us participate in this positive event.
Sincerely, Klara

Rashmi in Frisco:

Our family has been supporting a friend and his little daughter who lost his wife last year. The kid spends most weekends at our house. Last weekend she couldn’t come and she couldn’t go trick or treating either. Nived picked out all her favorite candies from his collection after trick or treat and made a bag for her. It was nice to see the smile on her face.
