Sometimes all it takes is the simplest thoughtful gesture to make someoneâs day. Itâs a fact often lost in the busy of everyday life, but thanks to a local bakery thereâs a great way to anonymously share a little bit of kindness of your own.
Chez Angela debuted on Wednesday in their downtown bakery and cafe a Kindness Coffee board, which gives folks stopping in an outlet to treat a stranger to a coffee that they feel could use a pat on the back or pick-me-up:
Just as theyâve taken the initiative to provide an outlet for folks in the community to spread kindness, the bakery has been on the receiving end of a little love of its own with posts on the initiative seeing their share of warm reaction across their social media.
The board itself has already seen the exchange of plenty of good vibes. In less than a day I gather there have already been in the neighbourhood of 20 folks taking part including notes for teachers or university students heading into the school year and another that adds an extra touch of generosity by adding a cookie âfor anyone who needs a lift today.â
You can share a coffee or maybe even find out that someoneâs bought one for you by stopping by Chez Angela Bakery and Cafeâs downtown location at 29-C 10th street.
