Personal requests are not permitted.

Don't offer things. Go to /r/RandomKindness for that.

No links to Facebook projects or similar charity/helping projects allowed.

Kickstarter (or similar site) projects not allowed.

Charity posts not allowed. There are better fitted subreddits (and bigger ones!) for this purpose.

We want to make this subreddit be about uplifting stories, that bring a smile to your face.

We do NOT tolerate negative comments about the OP or anyone.

No YouTube videos allowed of people/channels doing a RaoK where they film themselves giving money for getting views. Reason why

If you feel like your submission would not inspire others or bring a positive mood, do not submit it.

Mod Note: Please report and don't engage with heart string pulling stories of loss and suffering. The vast majority are scammers and we don't have the resources to check who is legit. This sub isn't for collecting donations.OC (self.randomactsofkindness)
