KIND Spotting: A True Act of Strength & Kindness
Published under Introspection, KIND Snacks, Kinded Dec 02, 2015As shared on our KIND Snacks Blog:
Great acts of kindness move us to the core and the story of Margarita Rojas Suarez does just that. Margarita is a grandmother living in Mexico who dedicates her life to caring for her grandson, Othon, who is living with cerebral palsy. Due to this medical condition, Othon is confined to a wheelchair and is unable to walk or perform most daily activities without assistance. Although Margarita is in her late 80s, she carries Othon up and down stairs and on and off multiple city buses so that he can receive treatment at a rehabilitation center that is helping him learn to walk. She selflessly does this, day in and day out, to give her grandson the best chance at a bright future. Her commitment is steadfast and her love is unwavering. Thank you, Margarita, for showing us the infinite strength in your kindness.
Watch the video above to learn more about Margarita and Othon’s story. Though the video was published a few years ago, its message is timeless. For English subtitles, click the “cc” icon on the video bottom banner and select the bar that says “Spanish.” Select “Translate Captions” and choose English as your language.

Hearing consumers say they “gotta have it” is the dream of anyone launching a new product. Susan Spencer of “48 Hours” shows us a case where that dream came true:
In 2004, snack food innovator Daniel Lubetzky set a very high bar — by creating a bar all his own.
So how would he describe a KIND bar? “It’s a healthy snack bar made with whole nuts and fruits,” he said.
And it’s hit a sweet spot. KIND founder and CEO Lubetzky says sales have doubled every year for a decade — a decade in which Americans gobbled up more than one billion of its bars.
