Carla's Pay it Forward

Part 1
What is Pay it Forward?
To me Pay it Forward means to help people in different ways. It doesn't matter who you are or how you do it. Help the world and make it a better place. Like in the movie, one person made a difference. If he can do it then we can too. Do nice things to other people, maybe they will do the same thing to more people and the people could do the same thing to more and more. You could say good morning to someone. You could open the door for someone. There are a lot of possibilities.

Part 2

What was your Pay It Forward act of kindness?
Well Althea and I went to the church and volunteered to mop the floor. We also made Christmas cards and put them in peoples mailboxes.

Why did you choose this activity?
We chose this because we want the environment to be clean and we want to help our church. We also want other people to smile and be happy. (:

Who did you help?
We helped the church and Althea's dad. Althea said he always mops the floor everyday.

What did you do?
I went to St. Edwards Church at 5:00. Althea was there waiting for me and everything was ready. So we started moping and Althea said I wasn't doing it right. I was like moping in different directions. She told me to mop up and down so it's faster. So then Althea told me she wanted to do another act of kindness. We made some Christmas cards and put candy on it. (: Then we put them in mailboxes near Sargent.

When did you do you act of kindness?

We started moping on December 1. We made cards before that, but we delivered them on December 2 and December 3.

Here's our proof that we did it.

*i do not own any of these songs*

Part 3

How did your act of kindness go?
It went well, and it was fun (:

What Happened?
Her dad thanked us. One of the neighbors was there looking out the window so we mailed it fast and ran away because I got scared.

How did you feel?
I felt really good inside. I like helping people and doing things for them.

How did the person or people react?
Althea's dad was thankful and the neighbors never saw us deliver them so I can't see their reaction.

Did you ask the person or people to "Pay It Forward"?
Yup. Althea did to her dad and It says on the cards

How did they react to your request?
Her dad said okay. Again I couldn't see the neighbors reaction.

Part 4

Why is the idea of "Pay it Forward" important?
It's important because some people are unfortunate in life. They don't have food, money or clothing. We could donate things to help them so everyone can be happy in the world.

Has your act of kindness made a difference?

I think we made a difference because I saw a lady watching us and she was talking about how hard we were working.
