WMFC Challenges Community in 2009

WMFC Challenges Community to "Pay It Forward"

"Pay It Forward" Stories to Appear on WMFC Website

2009 brings hope for many, fear for some and uncertainty for others...WMFC would like to challenge our families and our community to look for opportunities to help others in 2009 by "Paying It Forward".

In December of 2007 one WMFC staff member took ten $10 bills of her own money, gave it to 10 different people and challenged them to go into the community, help others with it and report back with their stories. WMFC is now challenging YOU to do the same!

In the coming months their stories and yours will be featured on our website.

To report your "Pay It Forward" story, simply email your story to Pay It Forward. Be sure to write "Pay It Forward Story" in the subject line of your email.

If you don't have an email address or don't like computers then mail your story to:

"Pay It Forward" Story
4011 W. Isabella Rd.
Shepherd, MI 48883

Don't worry about spelling or grammer or if you are a good writer or not, we can help you with those things and they are not as important as telling your "Pay It Forward" story to the community and inspiring others!

You do not need to include your name or the name of the person that was helped by your "Pay It Forward" story. In fact, we will not include names in the stories that we post on our website.

Our communities stories are already "appearing" on the site. Take a minute to read one or more of the stories listed below and prepare to be inspired!
