Pay It Forward Day is only 1 day away (this Thursday, April 30, 2009)

[Donovan Nichols]

If you don't already know , international Pay It Forward Day is only 1 day away (this Thursday, April 30, 2009).

Several cities have proclaimed Thursday, April 30, 2009 as Pay It Forward Day. Various mayors are asking that citizens do between one and three good deeds for others without asking for anything in return. Instead, the recipient should be instructed to pay it forward to someone else in need. I have attached a list of ideas of how you can Pay It Forward this Thursday or any day to help create a better world.

 

QUICK FACTS ABOUT PAY IT FORWARD DAY
