This story is so inspiring and what I love about it is that it's simple, yet profoundly moving. I am vowing to try and do some "secret" acts of kindness very soon. With just a little money and some covert ingenuity, you can make someone's day.Dubbed the "Helping Hands Project," a dynamic duo (Karla & Amy) from the organization Hope Heals performed secret acts of kindness for the entire month of March in their community. It included such things as leaving umbrellas on a rainy day (with a note), care packages for the homeless, notes of encouragement on random cars, buying meals for people in the car behind them, paying for strangers' gas, and much more. Read the month-long recap at their blog here.

*Hat tip to DailyGood for the story.
I love the idea of "secret" rather than "random" acts of kindness. Secrets are so often thought of as negative that it's refreshing to see them in a positive light.
