Kindness Makes a Difference!
A Small Gesture Can Have a Massive Impact Spreading kindness can impact others in more ways than one. You never know what people are going through in their everyday lives, and sometimes, showing them love can turn their entire day (or lives) around. Recently, we read an inspiring story we wanted to share. This story proves that a simple act can make a world of difference — especially to those who do not know where to turn. One day, as Danielle MacDuff walked along a street in Ontario, Canada, she came across a homeless man named Brian Bannister, and they started a conversation. As MacDuff learned more about Bannister’s backstory, she learned Bannister is someone with a kind soul who, unfortunately, went through several hard times. His childhood wasn’t the best, his first wife and second wife tragically passed away, but he had recently won his battle against drug addiction.
A HOMELESS MAN’S LIFE WAS CHANGED FOREVER saw a man who needed help getting back on his feet. And she decided to assist him. He told her he worked on a farm about 40 years ago, and it just so happened that MacDuff had a farm of her own. So, she offered the man a job. With tears in his eyes, Bannister told CTV News Toronto, “It floored me. It just came from her heart, and [I’ve] got to thank her every day.” Now, Bannister works with over 200 farm animals and has a chance to save money to get back on his feet. Over time, MacDuff and Bannister’s friendship grew, inspiring MacDuff to create a GoFundMe to help Bannister as he takes steps to improve his life. The GoFundMe raised nearly CAD$10,000 and was able to help Bannister in several ways — like getting a haircut for the first time in almost two years and a new phone! Seeing what a random act of kindness can do for the people around you is incredible. So, in honor of World Giving Day on June 15, please show love and compassion to those around you this month. You’ll be surprised at how a small gesture can have a massive impact on someone’s life.
Bannister told MacDuff he had “given up” because there was nothing he could do. But MacDuff thought otherwise — she
