    What a great piece of software! In return I have offered free webspace, email and design to someone who is trying to start up a business.


  • Jay Says:

    I refused to give a homeless man $5 - the only cash I was carrying. How is that an act of kindness?! Because I then took him into a grocery store, and we filled a shopping cart full of food, toiletries, and medicine for himself and his family. I put the purchase on my credit card, and proceeded to help him carry the shopping bags across the street to the bus stop.

    helped my son to build up his kitchen-furniture


  • Beth W Says:

    I do crafts with the residents of local nursing homes and try (not too successfully I’m afraid) to raise awareness of their plight. They are truly our “forgotten citizens”. The saddest part is what they need the most is our time not our dollars yet it is easier to get someone to shell out some money than to spend time with them.


  • Lisa Says:

    I took some new laid eggs and some just baked bread over to my elderly neighbour. I try and do this when I can anyway, because his wife has gone into a nursing home. Thanks so much for the software.

  • jim chow Says:

    I was at Waves Internet Coffee House surfing when I read my email from EarlyToRise pointing to your site. I came here to see what the fuss was about. Still don’t know how to use or what I’m looking at…
    Then a woman sits down beside me and I help her plug in her laptop. [does that count as an act of kindness?] Then her mother shows up and we talked and she [the mother] was trying to determine the best route to gain English conversation skills. She wanted to get a job somewhere to do this. After some brainstorming, I told her that volunteering was her best option.


  • shellyann morris Says:

  • Mike Oscar Says:

    My wife has been requesting I assist her in sprucing the house up, today I have got the builders/fixers in the house to start the basic remedial work. Thank you for reminding me that I SHOULD do something good, and it should happen automatically, not because someone reminded me about it.

    I have placed DO SOMETHING GOOD on my computer screen and the calender board.

  • Andrea Says:

    I gave my students extra points on their test! (They really appreciated it, too!)


  • Arts Council of Smith Lake Says:

    Thank you for these color charts! We are providing color wheel training for the rural areas of Winston County, Alabama School System. These schools and children do not have any formal art training or classes in their schools. Even though the teachers try to incorporate as much art and crafts into the regular class structure, these students do not have any fine arts exposure or training in the visual, fine arts music and performances or theatre. There is very little community theatre and/or art galleries (most of which is too far to travel to now with the gas prices.)


  • James Says:

    Mine is an on going act of kindness. I believe in being a gentleman and these days are harder and harder to find. My act(s) of kindness is almost daily I hold the door open for at least one person. Doesn’t matter if the person is female or male holding a door for someone about to walk in it, I feel is just the right thing to do and good manners. I hope everyone who reads this will hold a door open for someone and if anyone holds it open for you be sure to thank them.

  • Lucy Says:

  • Dan Says:

    I picked up lunch for my girlfriend today so she could keep studying for finals without having to stop for lunch. While I was out I stopped by home depot to pick up a towel ring for the office bathroom. She had mentioned the other day how she has wanted one in there so she can dry her hands when she washes them. - - She was really happy.
