Sky hosts Random Acts of Kindness Week

The Sky will buy coffee for people, give rides to work, get Chicagoans in shape for the holiday season, and most importantly volunteer their time to people who need it most.

"During the off-season the Sky wants to make sure that the Chicago-land area knows that we appreciate their support and are invested in the community,� Director of Community Relations and President of Sky Cares Erika Swilley said. �What better way to put a smile on someone's face than to surprise them with a random act of kindness.�

The week kicked off today, when the Sky visited various Chicago area high schools with Robert Morris University and surprised students and faculty with Sky gifts and tickets. The Sky visited Maine West High School in Des Plaines and Addision Trail High School in Addison, IL
