What is "Pay it Forward".

"Pay it Forward" was a "word" that - a kid would go around doing good deeds to others without recieving anything in return. So this kid would help 3 people. Then each of them would help 3 other people which is now 9 in total. Then each of those 9 people will help 3 other people and so on.

What was your Pay It Forward act of kindness?

For my "Pay it Forward", I send a bunch of my shoes which is over 10 shoes that were Derrick Rose, Michael Jordan, and other NBA players. The other act of kindess that I did was shoveling the whole Ashburn Street.

 

Why did you choose this activity? 
I chose to send my shoes to Salvation Army because I don't really use some shoes so I just decided to send it to them. And for the shoveling, I saw some people in my street going slow because there was ice all over, so I decided to shovel the snow and remove most of the ice.

 

Who did you help?

Well I helped a bit of the needed people and hopefully most people that live in Ashburn Street.

 

What did you do?

I sent my shoes to Salvation Army & shoveled the Ashburn Street.

 

When did you do you act of kindness?

I did the sending of my shoes on November 27th and shoveled on November 28th - 29th.
