For the third year in a row, New Glarus Cares is using Random Acts of Kindness Week as a chance to recognize local individuals whose work often happens behind the scenes but keeps the community running every day.

Observed annually in mid-February, Random Acts of Kindness Week is a national effort that encourages people to perform small, thoughtful gestures for others. The idea is simple: kindness, even in modest forms, can strengthen connections and build a more caring community.
