Pass It Forward

Today, I am super excited to share with you a project that has the capability to change the world, one kind act at a time.  Ashley, the amazing voice behind The Shine Project has come up with this wonderful project called, Pass it Forward.  It’s about giving back to your community, committing random acts of kindness, and working small miracles in the lives of those we pass.  Stuff like this just puts a super duper huge smile on my face!  😀

Pass It Forward was designed to get people to do little things, everyday, that makes an impact on the community around them. Pass it Forward is designed around a card. Each card is given a unique ID number. Lets say we’re at McDonalds, and I decide to pay for the person behind me in the drive through. I’d give the cashier the card, and tell them to pass it along to the next car when the give them the food that has been paid for. I then go home and log into the website that was on the card, and find my unique ID number. I log into it, and add my information… My first name, city, and a description of what I did….
Let’s say the person behind me was you, you would pass it forward to someone else, and then would go home and do the same thing. From the very beginning, you will be able to track where your card goes, and how many people you affect just by doing one simple act of kindness.
Isn’t this idea so truly amazing and inspirational?  I haven’t decided just yet what I want to do with my card, but I can’t wait to share what I end up doing~!  The possibilities to affect others are truly endless.  I hope that all of you end up with this card someday and share what you do with it.  To find out more information, visit The Shine Project!
I hope you all have a beautiful and wonderful weekend!  🙂
