Zakle.com

Hi,


We’ve created a website, Zakle.com, where people from all over the world can obtain friendly favors from others. They then pay them forward. We already have members in 46 states and 40 countries and hundreds of completed favors.


Since a lot of people are currently looking for work, one of the popular favors has been members having their resumes edited by other members so they will improve their chances of getting an interview. Babysitting has also been a very popular favor since people who are out of work can’t afford a babysitter when they go to interviews. The sheer variety and number of favor offers never ceases to amaze me. It’s proof that the overwhelming majority of people are fundamentally good.


Best,


Eric Stamos

All Acts of "PIF" Count

Hello my name is Lucia

I have been interested in this foundation for ages. I couldn’t believe what I saw, that I wanted to be apart of this growing foundation.
I have only done this for a couple of months at maxim. But already I have re-painted a wall outside the community centre which I donated for, along with other people, but none my age. I have help many people across my village and helped them with all sorts of things. I have helped an old man do his lovely garden and helped his friend, an old women who was also struggling to do her garden for free. I love the idea of doing things for free, it gives me a moral boast from life, and now I go up the old man and women and help them with there garden. Then through then I have helped all there friends and many more.I have also done the little things from day to day, saying that your hair is nice and then also holding open the door for someone, delaying my journey just for a brief seconds. But I must say that this is all worth all of them late days. I have volunteer at an agency that needs help, who where having financial difficulties, and then because of there financial difficulties I recommend that we did a summer fair, hen with that money now the agency has no longer any financial difficulties, but I still work there and I think that this has really changed my life. Then when people around my villager ask for what I want in return I reply "The payment that I get is from when you, help someone then you are helping me. Pay It Forward."

Now I want everyone else to do the same, now I need to send a message to everyone I know, and I want them to Pay It Forward, just like I am hopefully doing. to make everyone’s lives a bit more happy in my little village.
Thank You for having the time to read this.

West Boca Raton High School and "PIF' 2009'


Hey PIF Blog site:

West Boca Raton HS's Pay it Forward club has started up again for the 2009-2010 school year. We have well over 50 members! It's so great to see so many students willing to treat others the way they'd like to be treated and do some Random Acts of Kindness around our campus and in our community! I hope other schools are encouraged to start a Pay it Forward Club! Here are some pictures that I hope will encourage other schools!

All the best,

Pembroke Pines and "PIF"

Hello, my name is Mara Garcia-Ramon and I live in Pembroke Pines,

Florida. Yesterday was the first time I watch the movie on HBO with my husband

and the message got into my heart very deeply and I would like to share with

you something that happened a few months ago that definitely made me think.


An old friend from Puerto Rico reappeared in my life a few months ago.

She moved to Florida with her 9 year old son trying to have a better life

and start from zero. She called me to let me know she was here and after a

few weeks she and her son came to my house (I have a wonderful husband and a

beautiful 7 year old daughter) to spend the weekend. Going deep into

the many conversations we had I noticed that she was in real need, that she

had nothing, meaning only a bed and nothing else and she was living in the

back porch of a small house with no TV and only minimal access to food and

bathroom. We tried to found her a job unsuccessfully and it really

broke my heart seeing somebody like that.


One day I had an idea and without asking anybody, just doing what I

felt, I sent an e-mail to all my friends in this area and asked them for

anything they might have that don't need anymore. I explained my friends'

situation and ask for anything that they don't use or need. In only a week I had

half of my garage full of furniture. I received mattresses, bed frames,

dressers, TV's, towels, a bicycle for the boy, sofas, love seat, end

tables, lamps, sheets, comforter sets, pots and pans, etc. I was so amazed that

I called my friend and told her what I did and she cried and cried and

told me that nobody, even her closest family, have never do something like this

for her and her son.


How I felt? I felt great, great, great. Knowing that I helped somebody

in need and that God put his hand through these people made me conclude

that if everybody do something like this for someone in need things were

different.


My friend moved to Tennessee with her son. She found a job as an

Assistant Teacher in a Day Care and together they started the new beginning that

everybody deserves. Now I told her that is her turn to PAY IT FORWARD.


God bless you all,


Mara Garcia-Ramon
