Small Acts of Kindess
At this time of year, we believe small acts of kindness can have a profound impact. At McGowan Transcriptions we look to inspire each other to be catalysts for positivity and find ways to show compassion and make a difference where we can. As it’s Christmas, we wanted to share a few examples of how we have helped others this year in case it inspires you in any way. If you can encourage others by adding to this list, please do!
