Today I blatantly stole a great idea for a random act of kindness from a guy with a blog. His name is Kevin and here is his idea.
Kevin's Blog - Day 4
Basically you throw all of your change at the end of the day into a jar (or in my case a coin bank) and then at the end of the year you donate all of your change to a charity. I haven't decided what charity I would like to donate it to yet. But I will probably just make a choice at the end of the year. There are so many worthy organizations. It could be that an individual or a family is the one in need at that particular time.
In job news...I had an interview today with four women at the Animal Protective League and it went really well. I could tell they really liked me and they called me back right away to schedule a work shadow day. That is going to happen on Thursday. The job, as I expected, doesn't pay a lot. But it is full time work with health benefits where I will be working with abandoned animals. Even if I can't do it forever it will be rewarding work. All the employees that I met were very nice and personable. I feel like the attitude of the place is super positive unlike many of the jobs I have had.
I also called a local nursing home and asked them if they would be interested in having me and a friend perform for their residents sometime in late February. They said they would love that and sounded geniunely excited. I am trying to draft a couple of my bandmates (all my bandmates are super good people) to help me out and make it really awesome. Maybe we can do it a couple times. We'll see.
Money spent so far: $82.63
