2020 was a crazy year, and yet it appears it helped make many people feel, and be kinder...
Have you been the recipient of kindness? Or are you the one to be giving the kindness?
How was 2020 for you?According to a new survey, 74% of Americans say 2020 has made them more aware of the needs of others—and more selfless than ever before.
A poll of 2,005 Americans revealed that since March 2020, people are more often embracing the idea of neighborly love. Some examples include:
87% of Americans have donated a portion of their paycheck, even though three in five experienced financial difficulties.
41% have helped a stranger across the street. 38% have gone out of their way to take out their neighbor’s trash, and 31% have walked their neighbor’s dog.
And, for those who live in snowy climates, one-third have shoveled out a neighbor’s car in the past year.
In general, seventy-two percent said they found themselves caring about the health and well-being of others significantly more in the past year.
