YOUTH ADVISORY COMMITTEE
AGENDA STATEMENT
MEETING DATE: March 10, 1998
SUBJECT: Random Acts of Kindness Week
EXHIBITS ATTACHED: None
RECOMMENDATION: Receive Report and Provide Input
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION: At the February 10, 1998 meeting of the Youth Advisory
Committee, the Committee elected to sponsor a Random Acts of Kindness Week in conjunction with the
leadership class at Dublin High School. A sub-committee was appointed to determine the dates and
components of Random Acts of Kindness Week.
The sub-committee found that the leadership class was moving forward too quickly for the YAC to co-
sponsor a Random Acts of Kindness Week. Consequently, the sub-committee has determined that it
would best to have two separate Random Acts of Kindness Weeks. Below is a summary the sub-
committees recommendations.
Title: John Bliss,Random Acts of Kindness Week
Week: April 5 - 12
YAC: Distribute posters throughout community
Assemble gift baskets with an Easter theme for Children's Hospital and rest homes
Sponsor trip to St. Vincent De Paul's soup kitchen

Police/Fire: Teddy Bear Drive
Business: Store discounts on friendly items, like candy, flowers, cards etc.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Committee review and discuss the proposal of the John Bliss, Random Acts of
Kindness Week. Staff also suggests that the Committee identify ways to involve more teens and how to
solicit business participation.
