#BetterThePond
What ripple effect will your actions create?
the world is your pond.
Welcome to the Pond - your sphere of influence. It reaches well beyond those in front of you and carries ripples - touching lives globally. We believe we are better together.
#BetterThePond is a movement designed to encourage taking the time to appreciate and truly see those around us.
