Today is Random Act of Kindness Day! Rather than buying someone a coffee in line at Starbucks, here are two ways you could help a friend, family member, or a stranger today using LoanGifting.

LoanGifting® was created for today’s youth—full of ambition and unlimited potential—and those determined to help them realize a debt-free and productive life sooner rather than later.

Did you know that one in five Americans have student loan debt?

That’s 44.7 MILLION people totaling 1.47 TRILLION dollars in debt!

RKS created LoanGifting after researching and determining how many people suffer from student loan debt. We created a platform where people can go for student loan advice and ask friends, family members, and employers to help pay off their student loan debt. Instead of receiving gifts or bonuses, people can give money directly to helping pay off student loan debt. Today is such a great day to help someone pay off their student loan debt!

Contributing as little as five dollars to anyone’s LoanGifting account truly goes a long way. If you know someone already using the LoanGifting platform, it’s easy to donate to their account. If you don’t know anyone on the platform, you’re able to search for people and read their stories of student loan debt. If their story resonates with you, then you can easily donate five dollars to their account. If you don’t have five dollars to spend and know a loved one with student loan debt, make them a profile! It’s an easy process that doesn’t take long. Add some of their personal information, maybe a little bit about their story

Go out there and spread some kindness into the world!

About RKS

RKS is a design and innovation firm that creates solutions for clients that are relevant to the market, build the brand and create emotional connection. RKS services the full range of companies from funded startups to multinational corporations. Founder Ravi K. Sawhney cultivated a people-centric approach modeled from his work at Xerox PARC in the 1970’s, where innovative methods using psychology as an essential factor in design resulted in the first-generation touch screen graphic interface as well as many other breakthroughs. RKS came to national attention shortly after its founding by developing the production design of the animated Teddy Ruxpin, one of the greatest disruptive success stories in the history of the toy industry. Success followed success, with RKS being in on the ground floor of tablets with Alan Kay, Pocket Arcades with Sega and the game-changing dental whitening system for Discus Dental. Another milestone was the turnaround of MiniMed, developing a discreet personal insulin pump that allowed millions of diabetics to shed the stigma of being seen as “sick.” This inspired design took MiniMed from a declining $40M in revenue to $270M in three years, leading to its acquisition by Medtronic for $3.6B. The 1990’s brought a confluence of deep introspection and humanity, along with insights into how the work of Joseph Campbell and Abraham Maslow could inform design. This direction led to RKS Design’s highly acclaimed Psycho-Aesthetics methodology.
