The saying goes that ‘goodness is it’s own reward’, and it’s true: the feeling of bringing a little sunshine to the life of another for no other reason than a warm glow inside is truly gratifying.
Boom Boom! Cards from the USA formalise random acts of kindness. Named for “the karmic notion that every good deed comes back around to inspire even more good deeds, boomerang style – Boom Boom!” , these 26 card decks feature ideas for spreading kindness in everyday life.
You begin by registering your deck and then performing the specified kind acts. You give the card to the person you’ve spread the kindness to, then write (and/or upload images and video) about your experience on the Boom Boom! Cards website. Each card has a unique ID number which allows you to track it and future good deeds it inspires when the future owners document their kindness.
Boom Boom! Cards are are a neat way to teach kids the beauty of altruistic goodness. Wholly made in the USA made from 30-100% post consumer recycled/recyclable materials, Boom Boom! Cards put their money where their mouth is, too: 10% of all profits are donated to charities.
Boom Boom! Cards come in Family, Original, Teen or Green varieties for $14.95 a set, and are available in Australia exclusively through Kindred Gifts, who gift all shoppers with a free single Boom Boom! Card with each order and who have a super loyalty program and charitable donations project to keep the goodness flowing all round.
