Scholarship to ‘Web of Change’ in Canada; Andrew and I carpool from Canada.

Couple years later: Philip, Andrew’s roommate, hosts 50 people for NYC ‘Wednesday’

Philip is moved and inspired by CF. When his division shuts down at work, he chooses to donate computers.

Inspired by KK, he hosts Karma Auction which “only accepts bids of kind acts.”

We blast it to the NY chapter , feature on DailyGood, get Deepak Chopra to Tweet it … and soon it’s on CBS!

Philip is ecstatic, fields requests, gives out equipment as people pay-it-forward.

One guy volunteered to teach neighbor’s foster son to drive. And then ended up gifting him an entire car!

In the meantime, Jenny continues Wednesdays and Tom heads to CharityFocus for the whole year!

Keynoted at Bioneers – spread lots of small ripples.

Weeks later, I meet with three major philanthropists who said, “Tell us what you need.” I ask ‘em to pull a Smile Deck card.

One of them says, “My daughter saw you at Bioneers; yours was the only talk she wanted a DVD of. You really touch people.”

They decided to tag all attendees of Bioneers with a Smile Deck!
