Actively Caring 4 People

I have two bits of really great information.

1. I got a new job and so far it's been really great. I'm definitely looking forward to what's ahead. This also means that I've given my notice at PF Changs aaand..... sweet freeeeedooomm has officially begun to take over my life!!!

2. I met an awesome group of people tonight. They were one of my tables at work and they made having to work these two more weeks seem to be not so bad.

Five guys from Virginia Tech started a non-profit organization called Actively Caring 4 People. They want to promote intentional acts of kindness everyday that positively impact another person's life. They have green wristbands that are passed along from person to person as acts of kindness are witnessed. Basically, when you see a person doing something kind you pass along the wristband, tell them about this awesome movement, and encourage them to pass it along to the next kind person. Their hope is to inspire people to continuously commit acts of kindness.

Tonight, as I was taking their dinner orders, we got to talking about what I studied in college and what my goals are for the future. Once I told them about my desire to work in non-profits and the job I'm just starting this week (which deals with multiple charitable organizations around DC) they gave me a green bracelet, told me all about their efforts with their new organization and encouraged me to pass it along.

I'm hoping that I can somehow help them continue to achieve their goals. Check out their website and BE KIND!
