Random Acts of Kindness Day

Fun and inclusive to everyone!

 

The Corner Brook Women Centre will be in the community handing out Care Bags.

 

We plan to visit Tim Hortons, purchase free coffees to hand out, and hopefully start a chain of “pay it forward” purchases in the drive-thru.

 

We will be at the Corner Brook Public Library handing out goodies and chatting with community members about Violence Prevention. If you happen to see us out at any of these locations, stop by and have a chat. Locations & Hours – Newfoundland & Labrador Public Libraries
