Watch: Why Take Part in Good Deeds Day?

Good Deeds Day - now an annual tradition - drew in a large mass of people from all walks of life, who joined in and gave of themselves to others on one day: March 20, 2012. 
The prelude to the international Good Deeds Day, which will take place March 25, the good-deeds celebration in Israel was inspiring and heart-warming while also being enjoyable. As it turns out, doing good can be fun. 
Here's what it looked like in numbers:  

1 Good Deeds Day
250,000 volunteers
3,400 projects
163 local authorities
76 academic institutions
300 companies
Incalculable amounts of inspiration
