RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS WEEK
PROCLAMATION
Whereas, the City of Green River recognizes the value of simple acts of kindness performed
without prompting or reason and how these acts can positively impact the performer, the
recipient and onlooker of the good deed; and
Whereas, Wyoming Governor Matt Mead has declared February 12th through February 18th,
as “Random Acts of Kindness Week” for Wyoming Schools and challenged each school to
perform “307 Acts of Kindness” as part of an international week of kindness: and
Whereas, people of any age can participate in “Random Acts of Kindness” any time,
any place and for the unselfish purpose of spreading goodwill: and
Whereas, by providing “Random Acts of Kindness” and reaching out to one another,
regardless of social or economic status, education, gender, origin, religious belief, age, lifestyle
or abilities, we extend an opportunity for grace, dignity and acceptance that might not otherwise
be offered; and
NOW
THEREFORE, I, Pete Rust, Mayor of Green River, Wyoming, do hereby proclaim
February 12th through February 18th, as “Random Acts of Kindness Week” in the City of Green
River and ask citizens of our community to join with me to recognize and perform random acts
of kindness.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have hereunto set my hand this 7th day of February, 2017.
Mayor, Pete Rust
