“When I started middle school I was living in South Baltimore. I had to take public transit for the first time leaving home around 6AM to arrive to my school in Northeast Baltimore on time. Me and my mom did trial rides the week before to get the routes down. The school also had busses at the school. This particular day I took the bus in front of the school that was marked Downtown. As you can expect it did not go to its listed destination. Its last stop was (I later came to know was East Baltimore)closer to East North Avenue.
I’ll never did get her name but I guess the lady could see I was silently freaking out. My infamous poker face was still in its infancy. She asked me how far I needed to go. When I told her Cherry Hill she walked me to the correct bus stop and gave me bus fare.
This is one of the many reasons that throughout my life that I try to be a helping hand whenever I can.”

“I am boarder line wanting to share this with you for fear you would think I am crazy but here goes….
I was in a gas station getting gas and needed to also use their ATM. I noticed a receipt still in the ATM and the looked down and noticed that there a $20 bill lying in the dispenser.
Not thinking I snatched the receipt and money looked around, no one around but two cashiers so I ran outside and there also no one to be seen. I then gave the $20 bill and receipt to the cashier, explained what happened. He looked at me probably thinking I was a completed idiot and I didn’t realize why until he repeated back to me what I had just explained to him.
I then went back to ATM and finished my transaction. As I was leaving the other cashier ran to catch up with me and said wow, I can’t believe you returned this money. I told him, I could not have this on my conscious, someone possibly getting their last $20 out of their account, maybe using this for money for groceries for their kids, I can surely relate to being low on cash these days.
He reached out his hand to shake my hand and said you are something. That’s really all I needed to hear really made my day :)”

“I stopped by the Chateau Apartments and noticed and older resident with a cane exiting Building 2 walking really slow. I was on my way in to Building 2 to do a delivery. 20 minutes later I got to Building 1 to do another delivery and noticed the resident with the cane had just made it to Building 1. He was breathing really heavy. I greeted him and as I opened the entrance door for him, Raquel had just pulled up in a golf cart and was going to drive the resident to the bus stop at the end of the community. That walk alone could have taken him an hour. Thank you Raquel for lending your hand in such a nice way to your resident. I know that resident truly appreciated your kindness.”

“It was the second day of our bikepacking trip from Pittsburg PA to Cumberland MD when we saw a couple walking their bicycle, we asked them what was going on and the lady said her bike had a flat tire, it was fixed earlier by some bikers ahead of us and its ran flat again. Even though we were running late to the next campsite, we decided to stop and help the couple. They were 15 miles away from their campsite and we cant afford to let them walk that far in the woods and it was almost nightfall. I patched the inner tube and had the bike running again. . Everybody was happy to lend a helping hand and we still manage to get to the campsite on time.
After a few hours, we got settled at camp and two other bikers arrived a little past 9pm, They tried to get food from the local stores and all were closed since we had extra pizzas for dinner we gave it to them and they were so thankful because they were so hungry after pedaling 75 miles. We felt great to pay it forward.”

“I witnessed my service manger paying it forward to the two grounds techs that just joined our team. We just starting having our own grounds team and he supplied them each with their own hand saws, hammers, screw driver sets, pry bars, and utility knives. He let them know that their first set of tools was on him and after that they would have to replace their own tools. I later asked him if he had his receipt so I could submit for reimbursement for him. He replied, “It was done for me when I first started working here with no tools at all…I have done it for all of my service technicians and this is my way to pay it forward.” Once, most of the office was sick and he went out and bought a box of tissue for each desk in the office out of pocket. These are just a few examples of how Leon Pays it Forward.”

“Service Tech, Judy Richardson, & Leasing Professional, Lydia Patrick of The Residences at Oella Mill, located in Ellicott City, MD. Just on the line that divides the two counties of Howard & Baltimore County.
This “Pay It Forward” is all about random acts of kindness that inspire others to continue to do GREAT!
The other day, our team here at Oella thought about how we could go and say thank you to the Baltimore County Police Officers. We often see and interact with the Howard County Police Officers. After realizing this we called over to ask permission to stop by and bring some goodies just to say thank you. They loved the idea and was so excited! The officer on the other end of the phone line said that they are so used to getting negative calls that it was almost unbelievable we’d be bringing over free goodies & Smiles. In order to show our support, Judy and Lydia brought 5 dozen of Dunkin Donuts to the officers at the station and asked for them to just Pay It Forward! The gentleman loved it & spent time with us to share some of their “Pay It Forward” stories! It was a wonderful occasion & felt rewarding!”

“Amy Gross is an amazing and kind person. Every time I turn around, she is doing something kind for someone and not expecting one thing in return, ever! Today was my birthday and she called me to offer to take me out to lunch. (another one of our team offered also) It really made my day that they offered to do this for me. Four of us ended up going out to eat at a Hibachi Grill. We had a great time, Amy is always the life of a party! At the end of lunch, Amy surprised everyone and paid for the entire check. However, her kindness did not stop there. Sitting at our grill table there was another man and woman . It was the man’s birthday as well. To our surprise, not only did Amy pay for us but she also surprised this couple and paid for their meal as well(and gave them a Pay it Forward card)! What an amazing example of paying it forward! Thanks Amy, you made my day, but not just because you bought me lunch…because you bought that couple lunch! :0)”

I gave him tips, some grocery items along with the card. While I was driving away, I saw thru the rearview mirror that he was reading the card. Giving is not measure by how, who, what, when is all about caring. I went back yesterday to the same store and he was there again. He said from the tips you gave me, I only used some and the rest I gave it to the lady across the street that has two small kids. I replied “Awesome””

“My neighbor is in her mid 70’s, retired last year and lost her husband a few months afterward. I typically don’t have time to cook dinner for myself in the evening, and when SMC distributed the Pay It Forward cards, I went to the grocery store and bought groceries for us to have a meal together. She wanted to cook, and I was appreciative.
The following morning she returned the Pay It Forward card with a large bag of hand knit socks and wanted me to distribute them to the homeless in the city. So we made a plan…
On the Pay It Forward day I left work a bit early and gave the socks to about 20 people camping near the Healthcare for the Homeless building, went home and made a salad, then dined with my neighbor sharing laughter and friendship. It was a great day to give to each other and others.”

“Last night I sat in a Giant parking lot waiting for my husband to pick up his prescription. To be honest it was so cold and wet outside from the snow and freezing rain (19 degrees) that I wanted to stay in my warm car. While waiting a patron exited the store and started walking slowly towards her vehicle. Because the snow was so heavy (three inches) it was hard for her to push the cart. I could see her struggling to cross the street as she looked around for help only to find an empty parking lot. A young man eventually passed her but never offered assistance. I decided to get out of my warm car and welcome her to start her engine and get warm while I put her bags away. She said “You are a blessing because I just had double knee surgery and I don’t have anyone to help me” I told her it was my pleasure! It’s funny how my selfish act of staying in my warm car allowed me the opportunity to make someone else’s day and pay it forward.”

Fairfax County, Virginia
“I routinely stop and get coffee before work. One day in particular I was getting coffee as usual and I was about to pay the cashier and she stopped me. She pulled out a gift card and said someone already paid for my coffee. Apparently, someone paid for a gift card and left it with her with instructions to pay for the next person’s items until the money on the card ran out. After I paid for my items she suggested that I put the amount I would have paid for my coffee on the same gift card to keep it going. Needless to say my day was nothing short of amazing.”

“I was at Walgreens and a customer’s card kept getting declined. The cashier with his scrooge attitude did not help the situation. He was the only cashier and there were 5 people in line.

When I got up to pay for my items, one of my items was 75% off. I guess that was good karma. When you do good, good happens.”
