Jennifer Lount-Taylor and her husband Ron Taylor recently made a gesture of kindness that seeks to inspire a community. The couple purchased $50 gift cards for every employee at a hospital in their hometown of Nelson, British Colombia, Canada. They bought gift cards not only for doctors and nurses, they also included all of the support staff. The couple wanted to revive the gratitude the community showed for health care workers early in the pandemic, when people banged on pots to cheer on health care workers. Lount-Taylor says that the gift cards were secondary to the letter they wrote to hospital staff. She hopes that others in the community follow suit. "I just want people in this community to understand it doesn't have to be the size of the gesture. It is what your words say, what you show in terms of your gratitude."
