Welcome to the Random Acts of Kindness thread, also known as the RAOK place. This is where we post things to give away to others, asking NOTHING in return but a thank you. No money or credits are exchanged. We give freely, at our own expense. If you see something you’d like, PM the member with your mailing info. If you are the one mailing, please be sure to put full postage on any packages you send. Members have reported receiving "gifts" with postage due. Remember this is a PUBLIC forum, meaning anyone (not just members) can see what is posted here. Please do not post last names, addresses, or postal tracking numbers here, in order to protect the privacy of our participants. Please note that we must abide by PBS rules - NO buying, selling or advertising allowed. For liability reasons, we are sorry, but no medications of any kind may be posted in this forum. This includes prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and supplements. RAOK rules - RAOK Tips - Before you post something to give away, check the ***I Wish*** thread --- someone may already be asking for it! If you mark "taken" by your items that have been asked for, please put the word TAKEN in another color by that item, so it's easily apparent to our members that something is no longer available. This avoids disappointments and keeps you from getting more requests for an item that has already been claimed. Or, just edit your post to delete that item. Random drawings: If you wish to sponsor a random drawing for an item you are offering, please, before you post your offer, PM the current RAOK manager with the winning number (between 1 and 25). The manager will post a table with the numbers 1 through 25. Then post your offer, including the information that people interested in participating in the drawing should choose a number between 1 and 25 and PM that number to the thread manager. The manager will enter participants' names into the table, so that subsequent participants will know which numbers are still available. When no more numbers have been requested for 24 hours, the drawing will be closed and the winner announced. If one of us contacts you about changing your post, please understand that we have to follow PBS rules and guidelines. Often we have to ask someone to change or delete a post because of that. New things come up here all the time. If something is not appropriate, we will tell you so, and ask you to change it. Remember that the PBS team does oversee the forums. They edit posts and have been known to suspend accounts. We hate to have that happen to our fellow RAOKers when we can take care of problems ourselves. RAOK reminders for people requesting something that is offered here - Reminder about the use of Media Mail As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to PM me and ask. We are always happy to be of help to members of the RAOK forum, new or old. Thanks for participating in this great part of PBS! Enjoy! |

Did you (or your kids) use to watch Reading Rainbow? LeVar Burton is reading again; it's livestreamed from his Twitter account. Here's the first episode from Monday (2 kids' books, one of which he wrote), which ends with a message for everybody, whatever their age. He's reading for kids on Mondays, young adults on Wednesdays, and adults on Fridays. Or you can listen to his podcast. |
