BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - s4story -- The challenges facing the world today are far reaching and complex and the solutions often feel out of reach. To tackle life's greatest challenges and build a better future we must engage a wide range of people to make a positive difference in the world. This is why 27 countries, including the United States, recognize  World Kindness Day on November 13th. As a collective they believe that they are at the dawn of a new civil century, an age when people become the driving force that transforms our world. They believe that when future generations look back on this time they will see it was an era of sustained, meaningful civil engagement towards world kindness.

Robbie Motter, the Gobal Society for Female Entrepreneurs Network President, said, "Every year we honor a variety of female entrepreneurs and community leaders for their hard work and dedication to volunteering in their communities. World Kindness Day is an excellent way to honor these amazing female entrepreneurs."
