Tell Us Your Good Deed

My good deed is volunteering as a field hockey coach every summer and working with elementary school age girls. They usually have no other opportunity to play during the school year and this is their only chance. I like to make the most of the experience for them and make sure they have the best time possible.

Why are you participating?

I'm participating in The No Evil project because I believe that this world would be a better place if we all did at least one nice thing a day for someone else, without expecting a return. This could be something as small as holding the door all the way to donating blood.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I like to pass along smiles by taking photographs. I volunteer for the Hanover Theatre, with a professional organization - The BioCommunications Association and as a trustee for a condo association. I pick up trash along the trails when I'm geocaching (CITO - cache in trash out).

Why are you participating?

There is good in everyone, don't stereotype, and smiles multiply... pass one along. Life is good!

Tell Us Your Good Deed

When I was a teenager I attended a local festival with my bff. We found a wallet with more than $100 in it on a ride. We picked up the wallet and turned it in to the lost and found at the festival, with money, credit cards, etc. still in tact. It never dawned on my bff or me to take anything from the wallet. We opened it to check for ID and that was it. I hope the guy got his wallet back, but I know that we did everything we could given the situation.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

My most memorable good deed goes back to when I was in high school. I found a wallet full of money and credit cards on the street. I walked to the address stated on the license, and returned the wallet. Good deeds make your heart feel full. I continue to perform good deeds not only to make myself feel warm and fuzzy, but more importantly, to make the other person feel warm and fuzzy. Put positive energy into the universe. That's what it is all about...
