How to share your story

E-mail us at mtlcomm@cbc.cawith your story of how you gave or received anact of kindness this holiday season. You can also message us through ourFacebookandInstagrampages.

Many of us have been impacted financially by the pandemic, limiting us in ways we might traditionally contribute. But there are many opportunities to spread generosity and kindness aside from making monetary donations.

Add a spark to someone's day by considering the following acts of kindness:

1. Call an elderly family member, friend or neighbour to check in on them.


2. Help someone in your household with a chore or task.


3. Send a thank-you letter or email to a front line worker (teacher, doctor, nurse, etc.) that has helped you or someone close to you.


4. Make something special for your teacher.


5. Make holiday cards for community senior homes

And so much more! The options are endless.

Put a smile on your own face and the faces of others by spreading acts of kindness in your community.

During the month of December, CBC will be working with Family Ties New Carlisleto showcase stories of people in our community who are making a difference for our "Make the Season Kind" campaign.
