Civility Tracker

The Civility Tracker website was born out of a curiosity to see how far a reach the ripples of kindness have in our global world. To track the trail of kindness, we created this handy tracking site to follow where small cards given out at our library can travel.

Our printed kindness cards have a QR code and bit.ly address on the back that allows the receiver of the card to log in to the website and submit why they received the kudos and where they are in the world. The next person to receive that card can then log in and share their story, and we can see the ripple start to form and move outside of our library and into the world.

We hope to show that a kindness that was recognized in Corvallis, Oregon might move across the globe.

The Civility Tracker was launched in early 2016 and retired near the end of that year.  If you wish to borrow our code to start your own tracker, please see our Civility Tracker on GitHub.
