9 DAYS OF CARING
“… share the love with those around you.” – Sooyoung
In the spirit of Girls’ Generation’s generous and charitable nature, Soshified will be holding an event for fans to give back to their communities in the name of SONE and Girls’ Generation. At the end of the event, we’re going to be compiling all the acts of kindness into a video to show to Girls’ Generation.
From January 17th through January 25th, for nine days, head out into your communities continuing your daily lives, but there is a special mission: commit a random act of kindness and tell us about it. Let us know why it’s important to give back and care about the people and places we walk by every day.
A few ideas are:
– Clean up graffiti
– Clean up a park
– Donate used books to a library
– Give care packs to the homeless
– Give elderly the gift of music
– Help someone with yard work
– Volunteer at a local homeless shelter or food kitchen
– Help build a house for someone in need with Habitat for Humanity
– Pay for a stranger’s meal
The possibilities are endless.
We suggest leaving a note or post-it with the good deed that says “SONE 9 Days of Caring for Girls’ Generation” and maybe have them check out “I Got A Boy”.
Once you complete your good deed, head over to the event’s thread and post about it with the following information:
Username:
City, Country:
Video/Photo (use an external host such as imgur.com or mediafire.com):
Summary:
Date:
(Make sure to post the information in the forum thread and not the comments!)
Time period: January 17 – January 25!
After you post, tweet us (@soshified) your act of kindness as well with the hashtag #9DaysofCaringForGG
If you submit a video please make sure it’s no longer than 20-30 seconds. We’re trying to fit as many SONEs and good deeds as possible in the video! (By submitting in the thread you are giving us permission to use the content that you post.)
Girls’ Generation always goes out of their way with charitable ventures such as blood drives, donations to the needy, and charity auctions. Let’s show the girls how much their work means to us by giving them a great video showcasing SONEs from all over the world doing good deeds in their communities.
This is very nice! I’m so proud being in this fandom.
It’s been flooding for days here in my city. I can barely go anywhere. But i’m actually planning to help those in needs after this disaster ends, even before i know about this project. And now after i know it, i get even more excited. I shall gather my small comunity here to do some donations and help those in needs. I’m so excited! Haha
i gave poor people around me a box of “nasi kuning” in indonesian language that can be eaten twice a day… and i have planned to do another good things in my birthday, which is 20th of february, by buying a huge amount of breads, and will divide it to poor people that can be seen in the middle of my trip around the city
i gave a homeless man at the mall a warm pretzel but it was like a month ago does that count?
Absoltely perfect! I really really loved this idea! I’ll try to come up with something even if I’m not able to record it.
This is so beautiful, congrats on this idea, Soshified staff!
omo….i think i got some ideas to participate…unnie! hwaiting! saranghae! all credits goes to soshified too! lets do it sones! :)
my friend cam up with this idea…
she is really smart and thoughtful :-)
i am very excited to partake in this!
I think SNSD, our soshi members would be really happy if this is a success and they see the video ^^ it makes me really proud to be a SONE and i will try my best! I’ll see what i can do~ SONEs FIGHTING! <3
so we need to take picture when we give kindness to other people yes?
this is good!! i will participate! this is my dream to be kind. thanks
Soshi and SONES really inspire me. Hope you keep doing projects like this. :)
I just did this yesterday. I donated a bunch of used cloths to the salvation army. nvm I’ll find other activities
I just did this yesterday. I donated a bunch of used cloths to the salvation army. Aieshh nvm I’ll find other activities
great idea . . ‘ share the love with those around you ‘ – Sooyoung
yahhhh . . i want to be part of this . . yeahhhh . .
Great
this is the best project i’ve ever heard.. SNSD gonna touch knowing Sones did this.
cool project.
Nice project! and then 1/26 is the fan meetup in SoCal where you will show it? that’s gonna be a lot of editing in 1 day!
This is why SONES are the best!!!
Look how tall Seohyun looks in that picture! Haha! // Thanks putting in the time and effort to do this project everyone! I will try to help my community too in some way.
But Jessica is the tallest with those shoes! Lol.
It’s a great idea to help out in our own communities. Having Girls’ Generation as a drive really makes me more motivated to help compared to having the school tell me even though I know I should do some good deeds.
Is it okay to submit more than one picture/photo? **And as for the post-its/notes, do we just give them to the person we helped? For example, if I were to donate books to a library, do I just give the post-it to the librarian/whoever accepts the book? **
I’ll try my best to do some good deeds ^^
This idea is amazing, and motivates me a lot. It’s such great timing, because lately I have not been feeling very motivated by anything. Thanks SSF for this great project! Though they will probably send replies, I hope (miracle) that they would send a video response keke that’d be awesome.
will photos be included in the video as well or just compilations of videos? this is a really cool way to help our community and let them know about soshi ^^
Wah, it’s brilliant. Being a fan is not always about cheering for your favorite celebs, it will be good if it gives benefit to community too. Just like the inspiration “… share the love with those around you.” – Sooyoung. It’s like killing two birds, in a way and another. Good habit could start from this. Hope fans will be joining enthusiastically. Soshified fighting!!!
brilliant idea SSF staffs. *applause
i think once this is completed and presented to the girls, they’re going to be deeply move. :)
go Sones go!
good idea~
nice
woah~ best idea to help our community! Thank you so much for coming up this idea. I know our girls will be very happy to see this video. And guys hopefully we still help our community even after the 9 days of caring. ajja! Guys participate all! :D
