How this day got started

Give 100 Day was started by Patti Jewel as a fun day to celebrate the people in your life who help everyday. As a single mom of 4 children, she appreciated every bit of help from friends, family, teachers, coaches and mentors and she wanted to create a day that would celebrate and give back to those who give so freely every single day.
