The Journey will begin
In 2018, Robert walked 450 miles, (over 1,400,000 steps in 32 days) Robert’s purpose was to do Intentional Acts of Kindness and he accomplished his mission. A service dog was obtained and is currently being trained to assist a nonverbal young boy with autism and diabetes: Robert distributed over 500 Dooplapoops - Puppets with a Purpose to schools, churches, community centers and hospitals as well as gifting shoes to orphanages. He sang at concerts for Veterans and made a lot of people smile on this journey.
During 2019, Robert’s coach was hurt and because of the injuries, Robert postponed his walks until 2020. When Robert was ready to start again, the Corona Virus hit all the families, and so Robert has continued to plan and train. Currently, Robert is working once again with his coach and close friend Rob Hartley, to accomplish more amazing walks.
Our focus this year will continue our passion to do intentional acts of kindness, wherever our footsteps may lead us. Robert may be not have sight; however, he has 20/20 vision of the heart. Join us today in our efforts. Everyone can do an intentional act of kindness. It just takes a first step.
Even a blind man can see that one act of kindness makes the world a better place and that world begins with you. Robert F. Smith
