Couple Cancels Big Wedding For Kindness Tour

夫妻取消婚礼准备慈善之旅

A young couple in the US decided to give up their plans for a big wedding and honeymoon, and use their budget to go on a tour of kindness instead. Rather than having the wedding of their dreams, Mark and Ismini Svensson exchanged their vows in a courthouse. For the past two years, they have been using their wedding budget to travel to every state in the US to complete an act of kindness. Along the way, the couple has been taking suggestions they receive on social media. During the tour, they have done a variety of kind acts,including helping the elderly with grocery shopping, raising money for an animal shelter, and visiting disabled athletes and children in the hospital. The couple decided to do this in memory of Ismini Svensson’sfather, a philanthropist who died tragically at a charity event while talking about love and kindness.

美国一对年轻夫妻决定放弃举行婚礼和蜜月计划,他们将用这些钱开启慈善之旅。马克和Ismini Svensson没有选择梦想中的婚礼,而是选择在当地政府进行简单仪式。过去两年里,他们利用婚礼资金走遍美国各个大州进行善举。在旅途中,夫妻二人接受了他们在社交媒体上所提到的建议。在旅行中,他们做了许多好事,包括帮助杂货店里的老年人,为动物收容所筹集资金,拜访残疾运动员以及医院中的儿童。夫妻二人进行此举的目的是要为了纪念Svensson的父亲,她的父亲是一名慈善家,在参加慈善活动时去世,当时他正谈论到有关爱与关爱的话题。
