Pay It Forward weekend, are you in?

It is very easy to participate, all you have to do is do something for someone or some organization without expecting anything in return.

Pay it forward weekend kicks off from January 16 to 18  we are encouraging everyone to participate in our 3rd annual “Pay It Forward Weekend”. We are asking everyone to do at least one random act of kindness (more than one is even better).

It is very easy to participate, all you have to do is do something for someone or some organization without expecting anything in return. Pay for a stranger’s meal, send someone a card, volunteer some time. The ideas are endless.

All it takes is a spark to get a fire going. By clicking join, you can make a difference and who knows, maybe change someone’s life. Get on Board, invite all your Facebook friends to join and let’s see if we can change someone’s world this weekend. Who knows, it might be your life that gets changed.

Last year, we had 484,743 people that accepted our invitation. More remarkable is that 6,191,963 people saw our invitation and cause. This doesn’t count the people outside of Facebook that took part. Of course we want as many as possible to participate but the most important number is the ONE person, family, or cause that YOU touch. If we have just one participant then we have had a successful event. Spread the word and help make 2015 start strong for not only the one or more that you touch, but for you personally.

Remember, it doesn’t take people doing a lot, just a lot of people doing a little. WE CAN DO THIS!!!

This page is being used to invite and encourage people to do at least one random act of kindness during this weekend. We are not saying this is the only time we should do something for someone, this is just a time where we can all do it together.  In your community, across the country and around the world. We welcome all post and pictures that help us in this and we encourage everyone to share their ideas and things they are doing.

All negative post and comments will be deleted. Also, with the response we had last year, almost 500,000 participants, there may be lots of posting for this event.

Thank you in helping us keep this family friendly and positive!!!
