Novemeber 18 jhas come and gone! Pledging is over, but the movement isn't. You can still be apart of this project by helping 3 people in a big way and telling each of them to help another 3 people.
God Bless!

One of the people who has been with this project since the beggining is an actor and also owns a corperation that does almost the same thing I do. He was able to get half of his company (which is around 100 people) to pledge for this project! The other half is still deciding.
I have been going up to people where I live and have been able so far to get in one day, 17 pledges.
The total number of pledges is now 143!

Is This Project Stupid?
I think not!
Someone just voted on the poll that this project is stupid. But is it?
Can this project be done?: YES!
How would this project affect the world?: It would increase the quality of life. It would practise what Jesus told us to do. It would without a doubt change the world as we know it.
What will happen after Novemeber 18, 2005?: Trevor, the 12-year-old hero of Pay It Forward, thinks of quite an idea. He describes it to his mother and teacher this way: "You see, I do something real good for three people. And then when they ask how they can pay it back, I say they have to Pay It Forward. To three more people. Each. So nine people get helped. Then those people have to do twenty-seven." He turned on the calculator, punched in a few numbers. "Then it sort of spreads out, see. To eighty-one. Then two hundred forty-three. Then seven hundred twenty-nine. Then two thousand, one hundred eighty-seven. See how big it gets?"
You see, the movement doesn't stop, it only spreads!
Do you have to help someone with money?: No, you can help someone with anything. It doesn't have to be with money. You can help your teacher after school with grading or protect a kid from being picked on. Anything you want, you can do.
I hope this will help alot of you understand more of what this project is about.

Please read below to find out what our Goal is..............
Pay It Forward is a new movement that is beggining. You may remember the movie "Pay It Forward", a fictional story of a boy starting a project for Social Studies. His idea in the film was to help three people and each of those three people would help another three people. The catch was that it had to be something big that the people helped with and that you didn't pay the favor back, but pay it forward to another three people. The idea was that if people helped eachother out, the world wouldn't be so The hope was that if enough people did this movement, the world could be changed.
Now that fictional story is becoming a fast reality. Pay It Forward is now a real project that has started. The goal is the exact same as the movie's, except this time it is really going to happen.

Exactly What Do You have To Do?: When November 18 comes, you have to help three people. But you have to help three people in a big way.
