WKDQ United Way Random Acts of Kindness Melissa’s Turn! [VIDEO]

We've teamed up with the United WAy to make the world a little happier.   We want to spread kindness.   So here's how I decided to spread some happy! 

For those of you who don't know my husband is a paramedic, I've seen firsthand how demanding his job could be.  It gives me a deeper appreciation for our first responders. It's definitely not a job everyone could do and I can't thank the ones who choose that career path enough.

I was given $20 to do something kind with, so when my best friend and I were out the other night and saw an ambulance parked I knew this was my opportunity! I did have a little bit of insider info because before I approached I called Sam to make sure it's okay if I bothered them, and he told me the ambulance was at a "post" meaning they were just waiting until they got a run, so they were currently not busy.  So I ran up and gave them $20 to buy their dinners!

It's a small random act, but I sure hope it made their day.  It's a small way to say thank you for all they do for our community!
