This Summer, the #CBURoadSquad has partnered with Ramsay鈥檚 Honda to form a Simple Acts of Kindness Campaign for the second year in a row. This campaign focuses on spreading joy and kindness throughout local Cape Breton communities by completing small, kind gestures that can make a large difference. The Simple Acts of Kindness Campaign also serves to encourage others to get involved and spread this joy in their communities as well.
One ongoing act of kindness the #CBURoadSquad will be facilitating is the collection of donations for the CBU Food Bank, located on-campus at Cape Breton University. The CBU Food Bank, which has recently been relocated to the Students鈥� Union Building, is a valuable resource, serving students throughout the year.
鈥淚t鈥檚 important to give back to those who are in need on the Island; a kind gesture doesn鈥檛 have to be big to make a positive impact on someone鈥檚 day. As a current CBU student, I鈥檓 really excited to be able to give back to my university 福利免费在线看,鈥� says Karly Bernard, #CBURoadSquad member.
The #CBURoadSquad has teamed up with amazing CBU Alumni-owned local businesses, including Downtown Nutrition, City Print, Membertou and Platinum Fitness to collect donations from the public. Each business will have a donation bin available and will be accepting non-perishable food items until the end of August.
Wayne Miller, Owner of Downtown Nutrition, is just one of the Alumni business owners looking forward to this Simple Acts of Kindness project, saying 鈥淚 think it鈥檚 great that Ramsay鈥檚 Honda and the #CBURoadSquad are putting a focus on spreading joy and being a helping hand in our communities. The CBU Food Bank is very important to the university; and being a CBU Alumni myself, I鈥檓 more than happy to be a part of this initiative and help collect donations.鈥�
The #CBURoadSquad will also be accepting donations for the CBU Food Bank on the road, at 福利免费在线看 events and festivals all summer long. All donations are thoroughly appreciated, but some particular needs at this time include cereal, oatmeal, granola bars, rice and toiletries.
