Intelligent Kindness Animals can weather the ice cold and heavy snow, but it can sometimes be difficult for them to find food when the ground is frozen over. So, Uncle Vinny and Kathy decided to set out a huge smorgasbord of carrots and apples for the local deer population who often wander by. Before long, one was spotted making his way ov...er to the feast! Thanks to Uncle Vinny and Kathy for helping 4-legged friends survive the big snows of 2010! - TeamIK

Intelligent Kindness Heavy snow pummeled New York in the fourth biggest snow storm the city ever experienced, but that didn’t stop our Intelligent Kindness team from helping an 81 year old woman who was snowbound and stranded in her home without any food. Kathy made her famous Scampi with Linguine and delivered it to the woman who lived al...one and was stuck in her house because snow and ice made neighborhood streets impassable. Thanks to Kathy and her furry companion, Diesel, for the special delivery!-TeamIK

Intelligent Kindness The Intelligent Kindness team was on the road with John at his symphony shows in Omaha last week. While in town, the team donated money and their time to “Rebuilding Together Omaha,” a local chapter of the national non-profit “Rebuilding Together,” an org that preserves and revitalizes homes of low income, elderly and... disabled folks so they can live in warmth, safety and independence. “Rebuilding Together” has more than 200 affiliates around the country. Check out this link to see pics of the bathroom remodel they did for retired vet Leslie Swanson and his wife, Juanita. - TeamIK
Leslie and Juanita Swanson's bathroom was remodeled with the assistance and support from Uncle Vinny & Kathy representing Intelligent Kindness.

Intelligent Kindness Last week the Intelligent Kindness team traveled to Detroit and Grand Rapids with John’s concert tour. In Detroit, they met Iris, a church volunteer and single mom of 5 children. Iris was struggling to feed and take care of her family, so the IK crew treated her to a shopping spree at the local grocery store. During he...r spree, she was very careful to pick out items that would feed her family for a while. In Grand Rapids, the "Stop The Spread of Disease" campaign continued.... Uncle Vinny and Kathy went downtown and handed out more than 100 personal bottles of hand sanitizer along with snacks for everyone. Thanks to Uncle Vinny and Kathy for once again showing us how to make a difference in the lives of struggling and homeless folks around the country. - TeamIK

Intelligent Kindness Being sick and homeless could kill you. This winter, the Intelligent Kindness crew is focusing on the overwhelming need of the medically underserved homeless community and launching the “Curb The Spread Of Disease” campaign. Uncle Vinny and Kathy and the rest of the IK team are visiting homeless camps and shelters to ...hand out personal hand sanitizer to help prevent the spread of illness and distribute the comforts of home to minister to the sick. They’re giving out food, sleeping bags, socks, hygiene products, propane tanks for cooking and plenty of water. So far, they’ve been to more than 15 sites. All winter, the Intelligent Kindness team will continue to make the rounds visiting the homeless to give them supplies and support for illness prevention. - Team IK

After lunch, the IK crew gave sleeping bags to folks who needed them. T...hanks to Uncle Vinny & Kathy for once again making a difference in the lives of the homeless.-TeamIK

Intelligent Kindness With the cold upon us this week, the Intelligent Kindness team was off to buy winter jackets for the homeless. They stopped by the shelters to find out the sizes of the children living there only to discover jackets weren’t needed! Plenty of outerwear donations had come in and everyone already had jackets! While there,... the shelter workers asked the IK team for hygiene products, so our crew delivered a van full of the items. The women were glad to get much-need diapers for there little ones, and everyone was grabbing up the shampoo and soap, ready for a nice hot shower! - Team IK
