Angela's Pay It Forward

Part 1

What is "Pay It Forward"?

Pay It Forward is a movement towards making this world a better place. You do a good deed to 3 people, without receiving anything in return. Now, those 3 people have to Pay It Forward to 3 other people. Then, it goes on and on.

In the movie, this movement started with a boy named Trevor. Trevor created Pay it Forward for his 7th grade project. It was a big success and random acts of kindness have been given all over the U.S.

Part 2

What was your Pay It Forward act of kindness?

The act of kindness I did was taking care of my cousin's dog.

Why did you choose this activity? 

I chose this activity because I wanted my cousins to have a break. They're all working now and 1 of them has University, so they're very busy. They can't give Hiro, the dog, as much attention as before now.

I helped my cousins.

What did you do?

I took care of Hiro for them.

I did my act of kindness on Dec 2, 2012.

Part 4

Why is the idea of "Pay it Forward" important?

The idea of "Pay it Forward" is important because it makes a big difference in the world. More acts of kindness are given around the world. The world needs more love and this movement brings it. The whole idea teaches us to give and not want. 

Has your act of kindness made a difference?

I think my act of kindness did a very small difference, but I'm sure it'll grow because I trust that my cousins will Pay it Forward.
