This was sent by Skye Hughes. It is the information for the 1st annual Travis Alexander Legacy Day of Service. Please pass it around.
We are excited to announce the 1st annual Travis Alexander Legacy Day of Service! It will take place July 28th, 2013, and continue every year on July 28th, Travis birthday. This is a day when we can honor Travis by doing what he loved to do most...serve others. It was Travis goal to help better the world, and he will continue to accomplish this through each of us! You can do something that is important to you, or something that was important to Travis. Some examples:
- Hand out brown paper bag hygiene kits to the homeless with Travis quote: The difference between a Stumbling Block and Stepping Stone is the Character of the individual walking the path.
- serve food at a homeless shelter
- volunteer at an animal shelter
- fundraise for an animal shelter
- plant some trees
- clean up a park/street
- Become a big brother/big sister
- Read/learn/teach personal development/leadership
- Buy reusable grocery bags (maybe even a set for a friend)
- Be a friend to someone in need of a friend, or a better friend to one you have
- Random acts of kindness
The list could go on and on! These are just a few examples. You can do it alone, with friends, family, or organize a group! We would really appreciate it, if you send us your experiences via pictures, video, or in written form. We will be posting these pictures and experiences on his official website: travisalexander.org (Still under construction, but its there You can email pictures, videos and experiences to servicejuly28@gmail.com Also, if anyone can think of a really cool name we can call this day, besides Travis Alexander Legacy Day of Service (a little long), we are open to your ideas!
