The World of Good Blogburst

Every week, The Scratching Post puts up a World of Good (WOG) post. The purpose of the WOG posts are to bring attention to the everyday acts of kindness that occur all around us, but get little recognition. We believe that kindness and charity are far more common that acts of cruelty and violence, but they get far less attention.

We also believe that good deeds are contagious and that by highlighting them on a weekly basis, we might be able to generate some imitation by our readers.

We have been fortunate to experience acts of kindness on this blog. Several people have agreed to post links to our weekly WOG posts. One of these people, Georgette, coined the term The WOG Squad. You can join the WOG Squad by emailing us and letting us know you're willing to put up a link to our WOG posts. You can see the members of the WOG Squad on our blogroll to the right.
