Hi Pam! From Ohio. Don't know what Pay it Forward means either!!!

It is a concept of giving to someone who will not give you anything in return, but they will in turn give to someone else in the future.

Someone does something nice for you or gives you something and you return the favor by doing something nice for/or to someone else!

'Pay it forward' is when someone does something nice for you, you then do something nice for someone else, instead of paying them back. There is a wonderful movie by this title that illustrates the concept. $1.00 rental at redbox!

there was a movie on this subject. and it is about when someone does something nice or good for you then you pay it forward to someone else. How much nicer this world would be if everyone followed this rule.

Welcome from Ontario. This board is one great place to learn. Everyone on here is so helpful and encouraging.

It just means helping out someone else without anything in return. Like if you know someone who needs fabric, you donate and they pay it forward by helping someone else in need. Many of these board members do it and let me tell you it gives you a great feeling inside!!!
