Rachel's challenge

Hello everyone,
Thanks Heavenly Father, for creating Rachel Scott; in her mere 17 years, she has inspired society to re-visit the basic codes of living: kindness, respect, caring and compassion. ." Rest in peace, Rachel, and thank you. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Rachel Scott was the first person killed at Columbine High School on April 20, 1999. Her acts of kindness and compassion coupled with the contents of her six diaries have become the foundation for one of the most life-changing school programs in America. (taken from the Rachel's Challenge website)
Rachels' Challenge Mission:
We exist to inspire, equip and empower every person to create a permanent positive culture change in their school, business and community by starting a chain reaction of kindness and compassion.
An excerpt from Rachel's diaries:
I have this theory that if one person can go out of their way to show compassion then it will start a chain reaction of the same.

The challenge is so simple! Acknowledge acts of kindness.
I am proud to say that the school I work for has fully and completely embraced Rachel's Challenge. Already, I see the difference in my student's attitudes toward each other, and for the better. Students are encouraged to take some ribbons and hand out at the supermarket, etc., so be on the look-out, or start handing out ribbons of kindness yourself!
My principal has put this challenge to us: that by the end of the school year, we will have enough ribbons to wrap around our school. We are well on our way to reaching that goal...

There are ways businesses can become involved too! It's not just for schools.
