A ‘kindemic’ planned today in a northwest Iowa city
A group of businesses and organizations in Spencer are sponsoring what they’re calling a “kindemic” today.
Stephanie Horsley, one of the organizers, says many of the events are centered around health care workers, hospitalized patients and residents of long term care facilities.
“We’ve invited people to ‘adopt a sidewalk’ at the Spencer hospital,” she says. “My kids and I did that. We took our chalk and we wrote some just really encouraging words and they’re getting really filled up. It’s looking beautiful over there.”
