Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Porch Box Appreciation


--by mindyjourney, posted Feb 22, 2026

We live out in the country, pretty isolated, and are continually grateful for those unsung heroes - delivery persons, who connect us to the outside world; braving challenging weather conditions, gravel roads, rickety vehicles, early nightfall, etc…

So, when MisterM made a porch box for missed deliveries, we placed little holiday goodie bags inside for them. The delivery persons we have talked to have all expressed their thanks in return.

Looking forward to tailoring treats to match the seasons :))).
