The end product was a large-scale installation of 80 answers on notecards, forming the message "Small actions make a big impact." <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45475/1372441/coalitionOfKindologyWordmark.jpg" width="600" height="300" width_o="600" height_o="300" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45475/1372441/coalitionOfKindologyWordmark_o.jpg" data-mid="9521999" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45475/1372441/coalitionOfKindology1.jpg" width="600" height="450" width_o="600" height_o="450" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45475/1372441/coalitionOfKindology1_o.jpg" data-mid="9511344" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45475/1372441/coalitionOfKindologyCard1.jpg" width="600" height="400" width_o="600" height_o="400" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45475/1372441/coalitionOfKindologyCard1_o.jpg" data-mid="9522060" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45475/1372441/coalitionOfKindologyCard2.jpg" width="600" height="576" width_o="600" height_o="576" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45475/1372441/coalitionOfKindologyCard2_o.jpg" data-mid="9522056" border="0" align="left"/>
