Synopsis

Mama always told us that doing nice things for others should be a natural, common-sense, outward gesture that comes from the heart and results in treating others as we would like to be treated. These Are They is a collection of biographies and short, inspirational stories that reflect the lives of our community’s finest citizens. We call them RAK-tivists. These stories of hope, overcoming, and encouragement are bound to inspire many to reach out and touch someone in a special way. By sharing their random acts of kindness stories and experiences, readers will learn ways to positively impact the lives of others by extending genuine, kind and caring random acts of kindness to friends, family and even strangers. At the end of the day, after reading These Are They, we hope you will agree that it’s not what you have or even what you’ve accomplished. Rather, it is about who you’ve lifted up, who you’ve made better and what you’ve given back. After all, service to others is the rent we pay for being on this earth and an excellent way to pay it forward. Sisters Enterprise is a nonprofit organization established by sisters and authors Betty Funderburke and Elinora Reynolds to help change people’s lives for the better. Through promotion and recognition of kind and selfless people who perform random acts of kindness (RAOK), Sisters Enterprise demonstrates how one person can make a difference by engaging in RAOK in big and small ways. For this reason, Sisters encourages everyone (young and old) to boldly step out to make a difference by helping others, while expecting no compensation in return. By making positive strides to make our community and world a better, kinder and more livable place by doing one good deed at a time, Sisters Enterprise will continue to serve as a cheerleader for those who do the right thing by using themselves as an example of what is possible. Sisters Enterprise invites you to find inspiration in their stories. Praise for These Are They “Acts of kindness has nothing to do with my Hands.
