One TikTok account has been documenting as many as they can find on the internet. @o0ven shares slideshows full of unique photos on a variety of topics, but their most uplifting content is definitely their “Humanity” series. In these posts, they share amazing moments where people did something thoughtful for someone else.

We absolutely love to see social media accounts using their platforms to spread joy and hope. When people share heartwarming acts like these, it inspires others to be kinder, too. Here are some of our favorite generous actions captured by this TikTok account.
