About Notes of Kindness
The Notes of Kindness organization is a group of students, faculty, and staff that work together to promote a greater sense of connectedness, positivity, and community at Mount St. Mary’s University. We work to generate a sense of connection and mutual support for our Mount family by writing anonymous cards of encouragement. Notes of Kindness wants to provide opportunities for members of the Mount to engage in positive mental health practices such as displays of gratitude, sharing gifts and talents, exploration of creativity, and mindfulness. It is easier to live happy if you surround yourself with happiness and we here at Notes of Kindness want to help our community generate happiness.
