VISION
AND
MISSION
Boom
Boom!
Revolution
intends
to
instigate
an
“uprising
of
guerrilla
goodness”.
Believing
that
“kindness”
has
gotten
a
bad
rap
over
the
years,
we’re
spearheading
a
full
scale
operation
to
re-‐brand
it
with
distinctive,
contemporary
and
fun
products
that
not
only
build
community
and
improve
humanity,
but
also
champion
the
belief
that
doing
good
isn’t
just
cool,
it’s
THE
THING
to
do.

Mary

Campbell:
Co-‐Founder
&
CRO*
Co-‐founder
Mary
Beth
is,
among
other
things,
a
former
high
school
English
teacher,
a
self
confessed
“reformed
cynic”
and
Boom
Boom!
Revolution’s
*Chief
Revolutionary
Officer.
Genuinely
passionate
about
making
the
world
a
better
place,
her
far
reaching
talents,
which
include
a
love
of
singing
and
a
nearly
limitless
supply
of
exciting
new
creative
concepts,
are
only
superseded
by
her
personal
standards
of
excellence.
An
exceptional
and
inspirational
high
school
English
teacher
in
her
former
life,
Mary
Beth
also
ran
an
award-‐winning
high
school
journalism
program.
Fueled
by
the
inspiration
she
found
in
students,
Mary
Beth
exchanged
her
jaded
worldview
for
a
lifelong
commitment
to
uncovering
the
innate
good
that
hides
within
all
of
us.
Learning
from
her
students
that
true
honor
lies
in
being
the
best
for
the
world,
rather
than
the
best
in
the
world,
Mary
Beth
left
the
classroom
to
deliver
that
message
to
students
and
educators
throughout
the
US
and
Canada.
As
a
trainer
for
the
highly
respected
middle
and
high
school
transition
programs
Link
Crew
and
WEB,
she
has
helped
create
positive
change
in
countless
schools.
Additionally,
Mary
Beth,
along
with
artist
Hélène
Scott,
created
and
launched
the
re-‐branding
campaign
for
Link
Crew,
WEB
and
Mary
Beth’s
company,
the
Boomerang
Project.
After
years
of
success
working
together
for
the
Boomerang
Project,
in
2007
the
women
decided
to
combine
their
creative
forces
and
co-‐founded
Boom
Boom!
Revolution.
The
company’s
goal:
to
take
the
Boomerang
Project’s
message
and
deliver
it
the
world
outside
of
education
through
clever,
well
designed
and
unique
consumer
products.
Hélène
Scott:
Co-‐Founder
&
Creative
Instigator
Hélène
is

site
designs
for
start-‐up
companies.
Prior
to
co-‐
founding

Beth,
her

paved
the
way
for
the
unique
digital
illustrations
that
are
depicted
in
Boom

Cards.

PRODUCTS
Flagship
product:
Boom
Boom!
Cards
Named
for
the
karmic
notion
that
every
good
deed
comes
back
around
to
inspire
even
more
good
deeds,
boomerang-‐style,
Boom
Boom!
Cards
exist
to
generate
altruism
through
intentional
acts
of
kindness.
Available
in
packs
of
26,
the
artistically
designed
cards
each
specify
a
particular
act
of
kindness.
It
might
be
something
as
simple
as
holding
doors
open
for
people
throughout
the
course
of
the
day,
or
it
might
be
something
more
tangible,
like
buying
a
stranger
a
cup
of
coffee.
Users
begin
by
registering
their
deck
and
performing
the
specified
kind
acts,
one
at
a
time.
Each
time
they
do,
they
give
the
card
away
to
someone
else
and
then
write
about
their
experience
on
the
Boom
Boom!
Cards
website.
Users
can
upload
photos
and
video
to
help
tell
their
story
and
the
site's
mapping
feature
allows
them
to
follow
each
card
and
see
where
their
kindness
spreads.
Since
the
site's
launch
into
beta
almost
two
years
ago,
more
than
4,500
“agents
of
altruism”
have
joined
the
"the
uprising
of
guerrilla
goodness”.
Additionally,
when
purchasers
register
their
BoomBoom!
Cards
deck,
they
have
the
opportunity
to
choose
a
charitable
organization
for
which
to
play
and
Boom
Boom!
Cards
donates
10%
percent
of
its
profits
to
that
charity.
With
Boom
Boom!
Cards
you
can
be
nice,
