Pay It Forward
Join the Chamber on April 28th in promoting community spirit in Fairfield through acts of kindness.
Inspired by the novel written by Catherin Ryan Hyde, and celebrated around the world, Pay It Forward Day encourages people to do good deeds for others without asking for anything in return except for the recipients to pay if forward to others in need.
What acts of kindness will you perform that day?
