Pay It Forward Day
April 28 · Level 3 · #1582 of 2238
Pay It Forward Day invites you to do something kind for another person and ask them to pass the favour on instead of paying it back. One small act becomes a chain.
How it is celebrated: people buy a stranger's coffee, leave a kind note, help a neighbour, give flowers or share a useful tip, and then tell friends and colleagues about it.
The idea reached a wide audience through Catherine Ryan Hyde's 1999 novel Pay It Forward and the 2000 film made from it.
