Inspiring Acts of Kindness
As the puppy’s story took people by storm, it inspired many to emulate those acts of kindness. Social media was filled with the experiences of helping animals in distress, ranging from rescuing stray cats to volunteering at animal shelters. The ripple effect Tom had hoped for was beginning to happen.
The story inspired one woman to initiate a crowd-funding campaign to raise money for the shelter. The money is ten times more than what they expect, and they are using it to improve facilities and acceptance. A local school also rallied behind the cause. They even prepared awareness posters among others to raise money for bake sales.
The puppies had turned out to be the hope and the catalyst of change. Their stories had reminded others of the importance of compassion and the minute gestures that a small act could make.
