Here You Go is a Pittsburgh-based community project that gives out yellow umbrellas to people caught in the rain and asks them to pay forward the kindness by doing something nice for someone else.

Stamped, waterproof postcards are attached to each umbrella for recipients to report their act of kindness back to Here You Go. Returned postcards are showcased here so you can watch the kindness continue!
“
As of Nov 30, 2009, Here You Go is FULLY FUNDED!

We are so grateful to all of our generous backers! We’re a third of the way to our goal! Thanks to you, we’ve reached our funding goal with a week to spare!

Any contribution, no matter how small, helps us reach our goal of giving away 1000 umbrellas to random people stuck in the rain! Please consider making a contribution today. All additional contributions will go to the purchase and distribution of even more umbrellas.

We have so many of you to thank personally, and the joy of doing so begins shortly.

Thank you so much for your support!
