Five years ago today we did our first of 500 random acts of kindness in Rees’ name. We just wanted to pay back the kindness of those that helped us through the darkest moment of our lives. Armed with the card pictured to the left, I took my two daughters to our local Dunkin’ Donuts and simply paid for the car behind me – leaving the card (and our story on the back) to hopefully remind that person that kindness makes a difference. I honestly figured that it was simply the first of 499 more acts left to go. My family and I could have never imagined what happened next…
Watch the following video as my daughters and I head back to that very same Dunkin’ Donuts – exactly five years to the day, to leave the 500,001st ReesSpecht Life “Pay it Forward” card…

These last five years have proven that kindness truly makes a difference. Your support helps us to continue to prove this. The ReesSpecht Life Foundation wouldn’t be where it is today without your continued support. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
ReesSpechtfully,
Rich and Sam Specht
