This is one of my FAVORITE projects on the Internet. Caitlin's crusade is to end toxic "Fat Talk". Operation Beautiful is a movement of posting anonymous messages in public -- messages of positive and upbeat messages of encouragement such as a simple "you are beautiful" to the more specific messages on a scale that says "This number doesn't matter. You are gorgeous right now..." or on a dressing room mirror, "Beauty has nothing to do with the size of your clothes."
This is a totally free way to spread change! All you need is a pen and a piece of paper and a public place to put a note. Are you ready to inspire total strangers? Get out there and get to writing, get to inspiring!
Oh and by the way, you're beautiful today. Everyday, really. I'm serious.
Spread Change is all about budget philanthropy -- making a difference on a dime. We'd all like to be generous philanthropists, but not all of us can afford to be as generous as we'd like. Instead, we give our time, we give our pennies, dimes and nickels, we commit random acts of kindness. The beauty of this system is that if we all do it, the goodness adds up to create a far better world. Let's get started.
