This story is part of a series by CBC Manitoba about acts of kindness in the community during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was made possible in part thanks to Manitobans who filled out CBC's survey about acts of kindness they have initiated or experienced. Soon the small acts of kindness blossomed into friendships, and her neighbours became pen pals with her girls, even exchanging baking. Jensen said her daughters love dropping off their letters to their neighbours and seeing what they've received in return. One of those neighbours is Laura Schmidt, who says the exchanges have brought her so much happiness.
