A Good Idea
February 4, 2009

There are a plethora of charities and non-profits doing good out there. So what makes A Good Idea different? The focus is to improve people, environment and world through kindness and generosity of spirit. Pay it forward, if you will. It starts with people; making others feel good creates a snowball effect that helps conquer negativity, social and environmental issues. The call to action is not to build homes or establish shelters, etc. Rather, by generating kindness and treating everything with respect/love (through actions), good overcomes and the bad dissipates. It's like the Beatles say, "all you need is love."

The Great!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

A Good Day - an event for homeless people in San Francisco. I've done a lot of homeless volunteering, and I've never seen people have so much fun, light up, and feel good about themselves. I was reminded that we are all the same.

I could never do what Jared Paul has attempted to do and is doing.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

The other volunteers. Good people working together is magnanimous. Also, it feels so good to be making others feel good. Even a smile walking down the street can change your day.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

Exceptional people who care about what is going on in the world.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

restore faith in humanity.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

Getting more people involved who will take the time to make an impact and make a difference.

One thing I'd also say is that...

A Good Idea's model is what the whole world should operate from. It would be a much better place to live in!!

Should this review be counted for a specific campaign?
