Community Examples of Paying It Forward

Since we began this community read adventure of Pay It Forward, we have been contacted by a few community members sharing their journey and how they are paying it forward to others.  If you have a story and celebration, please send your video, story, or just a quick note to Dr. Sarah Mumm at 10358@kaneland.org.  We will feature your celebration in an upcoming blog too.   Please also take time to tweet and share it using the hashtag developed by KBK Service Project Curiosity Squad:  #KnightsPayIt Forward

Please check out how one Kaneland family is paying it forward:

Our family went to the park last weekend and before the kids started playing, they noticed lots of garbage was left around the playground.  They decided to clean up the mess before they played.  They said they wanted the playground to be clean and safe for all children.   #KnightsPayItForward
