Witness Ross

A close friend of mine is an amazing sprint triathlon athlete and he gave me a "witness" shirt that he had made(in order to represent him). It made my day knowing that I have a friend that would consider me important enough to do that for.

Every time I see the shirt, I will remember him and the acts of random kindness true friends do for each other.

Customer kindness

My job is to help customers when they come into my bank, it is part of my daily duties. Today was different, I struck a conversation about what new movies have come out (since he worked for Marcus ) and we chatted about the new Harry Potter movie. The conversation switched back to bank information and I completed his needs for coming in that day. To my surprise he gave me two passes for the movies, this was totally unexpected and well appreciated. It is nice to see that random acts of kindness are still being done today and this act certainly did make my day better but also gave me inspiration to do a random act as well.

For now I am only going to post the jpeg of a single card...but I will be uploading a pdf soon which will allow you to print out 9 cards on one sheet of paper.

ARK cards

The first ARK cards will be posted tonight after I do some test prints. I hope some of you will print out these cards and start passing on the kindness. It doesn't matter if this is on regular paper or not... honestly, it is the thought that counts...

Our Challenge for you

We want to encourage people to start giving back and to not expect anything in return. This is what inspired the ARK(acts of random kindness) project and I challenge you to go out and do something nice for someone, whether you know them or not, and the only thing I want you to ask in return is to "pass it on".

We will be beginning to circulate cards in Pickerington, Ohio which gives login names and passwords which allow you to come to this blog and post what act of random kindness was done for you.

If you would like to print out your own cards I will post premade ones and templates on this blog soon. If you would like to have your own special login name you can contact me on my gmail: guglielmi.tony@gmail.com and we can talk.

Please share your story with us and help inspire more people to begin giving.
