Tell Us Your Good Deed

Rescued a special needs dog and continue to love and care for her despite challenges.

Why are you participating?

From The Little Prince "What is essential is invisible to the eye". Hate comes from the erroneous belief that people are different. Although we are, our "essence" is all the same.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I have helped many animals in need. It is my purpose on earth, and I will always help an animal in need.

Why are you participating?

Labels are not necessary, as they create separation. Spread the love.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I volunteer to help other parents in my community to understand special education, disability awareness, and give resources for parent support, inclusion and activities for children with autism and/or mental health needs.

Why are you participating?

I am fat. The world gives everyone messages about how bad fat is. Well I'm not bad, lazy, uneducated, or lacking self control. I hope people can see a person, with a heart, dreams, family, and rights. My body is beautiful and I'm happy to be me!

Tell Us Your Good Deed

Followed a lone dog with a collar that was running loose in the middle of the street for an hour to make sure it wouldn't be hit by a car.

Why are you participating?

Such an awesome project! So many, many of the labels would fit me - and I learned a lot just reading the VERY long list of how people identify themselves.
