Things You Can Do to Make the World A Better Place

Publiziert Januar 23, 2016

Earlier this week, we celebrated Martin Luther King Jr’s birthday across North America.

As a civil rights activist and humanitarian, Martin Luther King Jr vision and legacy has impacted our world. And there is still so much more work to be done.His wisdom still lights our way and his inquiry guides us,“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is,‘What are you doing for others?””

As we get ready to launch UNIFY: The Global Sisterhood in honor of International Women’s Day, we’re reflecting on all the ways we can answer Martin Luther King Jr’s question. UNIFY: The Global Sisterhood will help guide the creation of women’s circles around the globe, feature women-owned businesses both big and small, and highlight some amazing nonprofit work that is helping to support women and girls in need around the world. We’ll be formally launching it soon- but if you’re interested in learning more, send us an email by clicking here.At UNIFY, we know that doing good things for others does not need to be difficult or complicated. In honor of Martin Luther King Jr’s birthday and our shared desire to more good in the world, here are 5 simple and free things you can do right now to make our world a better place.

Volunteer. Your community needs your skills, time, and talent- volunteer with a nonprofit organization and help make the world a better place.
Do a random act of kindness. Pay for the next person’s coffee, help someone carry their grocery bags to their car, give a flower to someone unexpectedly. Spread a little kindness in your day.
Leave a post-it note affirmation on a mirror for someone to find.Reading “You are beautiful” can help brighten someone else’s day.
Forgive someone in your life. Forgiveness is an essential part of creating peace in our world, both inside and out.
Acknowledge someone who might often be overlooked. Give a special thanks to the cashier, the parking lot attendant, the firemen or police officers. Appreciation feels good.

We look forward to making the world a better place, together.
