NICE Assignment: RecognizeGood

NICE Assignment
The beginning of another work week. Those weekends fly by too quickly, don't you think? I'm hoping I can be productive this week because I have so many items I'd love to knock off my to-do list. And unfortunately, lounging on my patio with a good book didn't make the list. Soon. Soon.

I stumbled upon this wonderful website recently. It's called RecognizeGood, and it began in Austin, TX in 2008. By registering on their website, you may submit nominations for people you would like to recognize. By doing this, RecognizeGood will donate $1 to their founding beneficiary, The Samaritan Center for Counseling and Pastoral Care. Or, if you would like to include a small donation of your own, RecognizeGood will match it and allow the honoree to choose a charity to receive half of the total donation.


Today's Assignment: RecognizeGood

From their website:
We believe one act of kindness encourages other acts of kindness. RecognizeGood aims to publicize these acts to lift the human spirit and light a fire of benevolence in our world.

The concept of this program is fantastic. It's so easy to register and make nominations. And you can click here to read some of the good that has been recognized. I encourage you all to visit the site, discover what it's about, and maybe even recognize some good samaritans in your own life!

I really liked it, it's a really nice concept.
I wanted to follow it right away, too bad it's only available for people living in the United States.

I like outside the country, so since it gives money to
a charity of your area it's is impossible for me to cooperate.

still, it's a really nice concept.
