Our purpose is simple! One act of kindness has the strength and power to create a long lasting effect in our community. Kindness is simply a positive action that leaves someone in a better situation than before. It takes away the focus from ourselves and it sparks generosity and gratitude in others. When we look beyond our own needs and help someone else, we better our community in more ways than one.
Pay It Forward May is important to the health and well-being of our community by creating a better place to live, work and play in. So help us work together to inspire others and create a long lasting impact with kindness.
CHANGING OUR COMMUNITY, ONE GOOD DEED AT A TIME.
Once again, this MAY, the Winkler Community Foundation and Morden Area Foundation are encouraging the community – businesses, charities, youth groups, church groups, friend groups, and individuals – look for a way to show kindness to someone without expecting anything in return.
Be part of an intentional community initiative to share kindness. Plan ahead and PAY IT FORWORD.
We are encouraging organizations, businesses, schools, and the community to create your own pay it forward initiative or act of kindness. But here are some ideas that we love!
Over the past year, there has been so much kindness shared. Our community members have been stepping up to help each other and show kindness, and there is just so much that we can be thankful for all around us.
Let us know how your business, classroom, or family is participating in Pay It Forward May in 2023!
Please help preserve these stories of kindness by sharing the acts of kindness that you see on Facebook, Instagram, or email us at scholarships@winklercommunityfoundation.com. Remember to use the hashtag #pifmay and tag the Winkler Community Foundation and Morden Area Foundation!
