Part
1:
What is Pay It Forward?
I
think Pay It Forward is when someone is willing to give up their chair for
someone who needs it or someone kindly asking another person for help. Pay It
Forward is doing an act of kindness towards society or helping those in need
and asking for nothing in return. In the movie, it was explained that, one
person would help three people and those three people would also help three
people, then it would just go on.

2:
What
was your Pay It Forward act of kindness?
For my
Pay It Forward act of kindness, I donated various clothing to the organization;
Canadian Diabetes.
Why
did you choose this activity?
I
chose this activity because I had old clothing sitting in my closet and instead
of throwing away perfectly good clothing, I decided to donate it. Also, I wanted to
benefit people with something that they could use and/or wear.
Who
did you help?
Hopefully,
I helped children or adults, who need or don’t have enough clothing for
themselves.
What
did you do?
I
gathered up clothes, that I didn't use any more yet still in good condition to
wear, and decided to donate them.
When
did you do your act of kindness?
I did
my act of kindness during the week on November 29, 2012.
How
did your act of kindness go?
My act
of kindness went well as planned. I was very pleased with how it was executed,
there were no complications.
What
happened?
I
phoned the Canadian Diabetes and they gave us a scheduled date. I was told they
would come in the morning around 8-10. I was instructed to leave the donations
in a bag in front of our house with a label saying the “Canadian Diabetes”.
How
did you feel?
I felt
very satisfied knowing that I helped even just a few people. I felt satisfied
because I helped with just a little part of someone’s life.
How
did the person/people react?
I'm not sure how the people/person reacted because I haven’t met them, but I hope
they were satisfied with my donations.
If you
did not ask the person to Pay It Forward, How come?
I didn't get a chance to ask because the people who come to pick up donations
come around 8 to 10 in the morning and we’re instructed to just leave the
donations outside of our house. Also, that morning I was not at home.

4:
Why is the idea of Pay It Forward important?
The
idea of Pay It Forward is important because so society/people would know that
others can do acts of
kindness out of nowhere and not ask for anything in
return.
Has
your act of kindness made a difference?
I hope
so. I hope that the person or people would appreciate and be happy with the clothing I
donated.
This was my "Pay It Forward".
