Story #1 by Sarah Sweitzer:
Don't know if this counts as a random act of kindness but yesterday I
participated in a suicide prevention awareness concert benefit thing and
it was really cool! There were so many talented acts sharing their
passions of music and spoken word (mostly original, which is even
cooler) and local art was silent auctioned off for the charity, too. It
was just a really cool event. :)
A note from Kate:
This absolutely counts! The point of Project Smile More is to spread hope and happiness, and I think this easily accomplishes both. Thank you for being our first story! :)

Welcome!
Hello, world!
My name is Kate I. Foley. I am a sixteen-year-old author, blogger, homeschooler, daydreamer, and eternal optimist. This is the first ever post of my super-secret-special-summer project, "Project Smile More."
I've been working since July of 2016 to get this blog up and running, as well as various social media sites to go with it. It's been hard, frustrating work (graphic design and blog coding isn't quick), but now that it's finally finished, I couldn't be happier at how everything has turned out.
What is Project Smile More?
About Project Smile More
Every day we're surrounded by anger, hatred, grief, and sadness. We see it in news headlines, on social media, at work, and even with our friends and family. It's hard to recover from a bad day or feel like we can smile after all of that negativity.
Our mission is to help you smile more.
You, reading this on your computer. You, scrolling through on your phone. You, seeing this on Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr.
We here at "Project Smile More" intend to keep the world smiling through hard times with random acts of kindness and simple gestures of love and community. If you have a story to tell about a random act you gave or received, we want to hear it. We hope people continue to donate to their favorite charities and brighten someone's day.
Feel free to explore this website as well as our social media pages. Dive into whatever makes you happy. We recognize that some days it's hard to stay positive and sometimes even impossible, but we hope we can help in some infinitesimal way.
Keep your spirits high. Keep smiling.
I can't wait to get to know all of you!
-Kate:)
