At the inspiring Moved By Love retreat in March, I made an internal commitment to spread the spirit of "giftivism" in my local community.  This last week we implemented one of those ideas.  We run an IB school in Surat with 1100 students -- Fountainhead.  Outside of the students themselves, there are two other elements that are quite fundamental to the learning experience: books and parents.   So we tried an experiment to engage them with generosity.  On April 26th and 27th, we put out 5300 books in our newly created "Wisdom Book Store" and invited all our parents, teachers and staff to buy the books.  The only catch -- there was no price tag.  The recipient would choose the price.   Full story in '4000 Excuses to Spread Love'.
