Tell Us Your Good Deed

Every year on my birthday, I ask people to celebrate by doing a random act of kindness, so that my whole community is engaged in making the day better for a fellow human being.

Why are you participating?

We are always happy to participate in diverse and creative community projects.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I've started an organization to help my sisters trapped in prostitution exit the life.

Why are you participating?

I have been labeled and stereotyped by what happened to me and the disease I struggled with. I am more than what I survived and the illness I live with.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I've dedicated my adult life to advocacy and activism on a municipal and state level. Schools, libraries, and art councils contribute so much to our shared society and I simply want to do my part in contributing back to them in the best way that I know how—through my time and my energy. I do these things because I wish to live a life in which I can say that I've genuinely tried to make my community a stronger and more inclusive place for people like me.

Why are you participating?

I'm participating because I firmly believe that labels are so incredibly important to who we are as individuals. They can be useful tools that help to give us a sense of community and purpose when we feel lost or isolated.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I support the lgbtqia+ community by helping fight for equality and teaching folks to live with an open heart.

Why are you participating?

I believe everyone has the right to happily live life and love who they love. I am a proud Mom to two amazing young men and want them both to live in a world where acceptance is the norm. Spread love not hate and give hugs to anyone who needs one.
