Today is all about spreading kindness and fostering community in Independence.
The annual Love Independence Day provides an excuse to give back and help others in the community.
Independence Chamber President Lisa Wilson says no act of kindness is too small.
Wilson says ideas for today include leaving a note for a coworker or neighbor, paying for someone's coffee or meal, holding the door open, picking up litter, or just sharing a compliment. While there will be several organized projects in Independence, Wilson hopes that people in other cities will be inspired to spread kindness today as well.
