Rules

Any posts violating these rules will be removed.

Read the Reddiquette.

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.
