Riccardi Students Inspire Kindness with Flower Power
On this day, people from all corners of the globe united to spotlight acts of kindness and nurture a worldwide culture of empathy.
Riccardi Elementary School embraced the spirit of this day by harnessing flower power. Students donned in bright yellow attire, a color symbolizing happiness and joy, orchestrated themselves into a colossal human flower on their playground. Their collective aim was to bring smiles and happiness to the entire community. Often, the most meaningful ways to assist, uplift, and contribute to our communities don't require a big financial investment.
