Pay It Forward Is Back!

Pay It Forward Is Back!

With summer here, the amount of kids coming into the shop looking to stay out of trouble always grows. A couple of years ago we started something we're bringing back - it's called "Pay It Forward". Please consider donating a comic to a kid in St. Louis this summer! You can do this by selecting the "Pay It Forward for Kids" option at the register or online.

"Paying It Forward" is our initiative aimed at spreading a little warmth and generosity, making a difference in the lives of those who could use a pick-me-up. Here's how it works: when someone expresses a need or could use a little support, we step in to brighten their day by offering a complimentary comic from our carefully curated spinner rack. We'll write your name on the back of the comic board so customers know who they can thank for the generosity.

It's a simple yet powerful gesture that has the potential to bring joy and light right when it's needed most. Especially for kids in St. Louis who may be facing challenges, like poverty, homelessness, or violence. Thanks to the unwavering support and generosity of customers like you, we have already been able to distribute hundreds of free comics over the years.

Together, we are making a meaningful impact in our community, one comic at a time. Join us in our commitment to spreading positivity and uplifting those around us.

With your help, we can continue to make a difference and create smiles that stretch from page to face. Let's pay it forward and inspire a wave of kindness in our community. Together, let's make a world where generosity knows no bounds.

You can pay it forward at the register or online. Every little bit helps! Your support will help inspire new readers in St. Louis to read and learn about comics!

Thank you for your support! Together, we can make a difference in the lives of kids in St. Louis.
