Acts of Kindness Troupe Pay It Forward

Mrs. Fix has asked the troupe members to create a ripple of kindness by giving them each $100 to use for community service. Here are some of the creative ways they have paid it forward: 
Brock made a donation to the Exchange Club of Lawerence to purchase planes for the aviation program. This program provides a safe place for kids to build and fly remote planes after school. Chris Rines (seen in picture) with GLCAC, Michael B. Christian Center, have gladly accepted this donation to purchase the materials needed for up coming class of aviators.
​They have also asked Brock to visit once the upcoming season starts!

Great idea Michael! 
Alec is working with the Newbury Food Pantry to pay kindness forward.
