Get Creative:

1. #ChalkYourWalk: If you've got kids or if you're a kid at heart, get some sidewalk chalk and inspire neighbors with a creative or inspirational message. Sunshine and fresh air are added benefits! 

2. Color Your Thanks: Break out the crayons and show your thanks to the frontline workers, healthcare workers, first responders, delivery drivers and all of those making a difference. Post your colored page up in your window or share on social media! Download pdf here
