- freecycled some folders and cd covers to some local freecyclers
- tried to assist a lady who had soiled herself at the train station

Live the Change Challenge update #1

So...I started my daily RAK challenge for Jane Goodall's Live the Change Challenge and here are a few things I did...

- stayed back to help a colleague photocopy stuff
- overheard a colleague needed to print out some notices so i did them and gave it to him
- messaged some encouraging words and a photo to a friend in the morning, who is going through a hard time
- pinned some vouchers up on the community board with a little note 'feel free to help yourself to ones that suit you!'
- signed up to support of Elephabet wants to be an e-Book and Poster when it grows up! by Hilary Pfeiferon on kickstarter
- took some morning tea over to a colleague who was still hard at work during break time
- took a whole bunch of plastic bags that were going to be thrown in landfill from work to the local supermarket's plastic bag recycling bin
- donated 5 picture frames and a stack of cds to the op shop

btw, sponsorship contribution appreciated! :)

Live the Change Challenge

I am up for the challenge and am aiming to raise money for Jane Goodall Institute.

My 'Live the Change' Challenges are:

1. Buy nothing new (except supporting MARKit)

2. Practise a Random Act of Kindness every day

3. Donate an item a day (21 items in total) to freecycle or op shop

I would welcome any contribution, great or small, that you could make!

Thanks :)
