Share Kindness NOT Coronavirus
Kindness During Pandemic What Can We Do?
Coronavirus has brought out the worst in some people.
For example, fighting over toilet paper, hoarding and overspending on consumables has put a lot of fear into people in these trying times.
Not all of us are like this and want to help in our community and abroad, there are a lot of selfless people out there and we need to give our support to our front liners in particular.
Here is a link to how we can help

Front Liners pack bags of essentials for Australia’s Health Care Workers.
There are no second thoughts about working long, gruelling hours and dealing with the horrors of the COVID-19 pandemic for frontline workers.
Many of them don’t have time to stop and eat, take a drink or have a passing thought about their own health.
That’s where Front liners steps in.
Front liner Group
The group sends hospital heroes like doctors, nurses and paramedics kits to help deal with those often-forgotten basic needs.
“Our aim is to deliver care packages to healthcare workers on the frontline at this time,” CEO and founder of Front liners said.

What can we do Individually for each other?
Calling on people talking and texting, giving them our full attention when we ask “How are you?” because we are particularly invested in the answer.
Taking quiet walks with family and friends, experiencing a personal connection with our co-workers inside a glimpse of their personal space while we are having more live chats Zoom meetings etc with us working from home.
We are finding out more about our friends, colleagues and acquaintances and asking them how their extended family is and their children with home schooling and how they are coping and if we can help.
Social Media a Great Source
Facebook or any of the social media platforms that you frequently visit has been a real hub with many groups we can join and interact in.
There are many people sharing many funny stories and many messages reaching out to people and friends keeping us connected in a sense lifting our spirits.
There is plenty of information out there to tap into for resources on tips to keep kids active and engaged.
Also, plenty of online games for children adults and the elderly that we can play with other friends and example would be “Words with Friends”.
Join groups to stay connected and extend on our friendships globally and locally.

WiseGirls Money Academy was created after working as a qualified Financial Adviser for many years and deciding it was time to assist women who desired to learn and develop the self-empowerment to understand their emotional relationship with money, the skills and knowledge to save and invest. They wanted to learn how to create their own financial future and become financially capable.
The WiseGirls Money Mission is to provide the opportunity and place for growth and development of women of all ages in personal and financial skills in a supported female environment so that they take control of their future to reach their own financial independence.
