More Information about Scatter Joy

Scatter Joy Spotlights

In our lives, we meet people daily that personify the true spirit of the Scatter Joy philosophy - living each day by creating and sharing joy with others.  So what better way to acknowledge their actions than by offering brief profiles of these very special people.  So generous and thoughtful are their actions that we're shining the Scatter Joy Spotlight on them.  The Spotlights will rotate on a regular basis, thought you will be able to access all of our Spotlights at any time.  Our hope is that you enjoy these stories and become inspired by their actions.

You, too, meet similar people during the course of your day, and otheers would like to hear about them.  We encourage you to submit their names and a brief summary of what makes them a Scatter Joy Spotlight. We will contact you for more information about these individuals if they are chosen to be "in the Spotlight". And, we may use their stories in upcoming Scatter Joy books!

What Is The Scatter Joy Movement?

Ralph Waldo Emerson said: "There is no beautifier of complexion or form of behavior like the wish to scatter joy, and not pain, around us."

There is nothing complicated or difficult about the concept of Scatter Joy - the very words define the action.  We often forget the impact we have on others as we tend to our daily business.  But if you approach each day with a vitality and a desire to scatter joy to others - family, friends, co-workers, strangers and yes, even yourself - you will find that you will be happier, more fulfilled and excited with new opportunities to inspire others.  And, you automatically become part of the Scatter Joy Movement!

"It is our duty to scatter joy wherever we can and by doing so we may be the inspiration that someone needs to pick themselves up, dust themselves off and keep living their own remarkable life."  - Erin Prais-Hintz
