Content Submissions

We’re always open to stories that come from the heart. HeartBeat Blog by Store with a Heart and UKindness Magazine exist to share moments of kindness, humanity, and connection — the quiet, powerful experiences that remind us who we are to one another.

Whether you’re a writer, creative, community member, or simply someone with a story to tell, we welcome thoughtful submissions that reflect compassion, empathy, and lived experience.
