27 Apr Pay It Forward Day – 28 April

Pay It Forward Day, founded by Blake Beattie in 2007 in Australia, is a global initiative that exists to make a difference by creating a huge ripple of kindness felt across the world.

Of course, the hope is that people pay kindness forward every day and make each day that little bit brighter. Small acts, when multiplied by millions of people can literally change the world for the better! For this year’s international Pay it Forward Day (PIFD) the aim is to inspire over 10 million acts of kindness around the world.

Imagine the difference that would make!  Join this global initiative in paying it forward and help spread the word about this important day! Our TDHS volunteers are doing it every day!!
