Pay It Forward Pots

One pot.
One meal.
One act of kindness.

What is this?

A Pot that travels by Kindness.

Each Pay It Forward Pot is engraved with a unique code and sent out into the world to be shared—one meal at a time. When someone receives a pot, they log their story: how it blessed them, where it happened, and what they’ll do next.

Together, these stories form a living map of kindness, generosity, and shared meals across the country.

How it Works

  • It starts when someone cooks a simple, heartfelt meal — and gives it to someone who needs the warmth of a home-cooked dish. Along with the meal, they pass on a Pay It Forward Pot, engraved and ready to carry the story forward.

  • Hop onto this site and enter the code etched into your pot. Share what happened: who gave it to you, how it touched your life, and what that meal meant. Your words will become part of a growing story of generosity.

  • When the time feels right, fill the pot with food and offer it to someone new. It’s not about fancy meals — it’s about shared moments and human connection. One pot. One meal. One act of kindness at a time.
