What we’re about
Anyone is welcome to come and paint a rock and then take it with them.
The Abundant Love Project is a simple way of spreading compassion by painting stones with hearts on one side and the words “You are Loved” on the back. Accompanied by a small note of encouragement these stones are hid in public place, like the library, beach, sidewalks, and just about anywhere, for people to find.
This project was birth through Deb Delisi’s grief of losing her daughter and as she was daily walked the beaches of San Diego she began picking up stone. The project has now gone world wide and groups are making Love Stones and leaving them everywhere around the world. A Facebook page for The Abundant Love Project was created so people can share their stories. In a short time, a community grew and stories of the power of compassion were posted on the site from around the globe, with reports of people finding the stones, reading the note and wiping tears from their eyes, and even choosing life over death.
