Curb
Curb, formerly Taxi Magic, is currently available in around 60 cities across the United States as well as select cities in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Mexico. It ties in with taxi companies and their drivers.

In 2012, Kim Stemple, a special-education teacher was in a Boston hospital being treated for one of several diseases she had been diagnosed with, including lupus and lymphoma. The normally energetic Stemple was naturally getting very depressed. And then a friend gave her a
medal.
Before she got too sick to exercise, Stemple had been a marathon runner. The medal came from a racing partner who had just finished a half marathon in Las Vegas and hoped the keepsake(纪念品) would act as a kind of inspiration.

Recipients(接受者)have included hospital patients, residents of homeless shelters, and veterans. Part of the process involves the donor writing a note on the ribbon. \connection to someone,\
Can a simple medal really make a difference? \pulmonary fibrosis. \medal and the notes of positive, warm thoughts. I was overwhelmed,\couch breathing through an oxygen cannula because my lungs have become worse so badly. It means so much to me to feel that I am not alone.\
