Story

Just imagine. You do a favor that really helps someone and tell him or her not to pay it back, but to pay it forward to there other people who, in turn, each pay it forward to three more – and on and on into a global outpouring of kindness and decency. Impossible? Junior high student Trevor McKinney won’t accept that.
