Tell Us Your Good Deed

Right now I'm working with a deep canvassing campaign to talk with people about their views on abortion. I'm such an introvert so sometimes it's hard to knock on a stranger's door and ask about such a sensitive topic, but the conversations I've had are incredible and people are really appreciative of the chance to be heard. Through this work we hope to open a broader cultural conversation and encourage people to re-examine their own stigmas and assumptions.

Why are you participating?

This project is so encouraging and is a wonderful reminder that each person has something to offer. Good deeds don't have to be huge and awe-inspiring! Everyday acts of kindness really make a difference.

I connect resources together, working with peers in the community to bring clothing, food, hygiene products and other items to those in need.

Why are you participating?

I think this project is amazing. It's a visual representation that we are so much more than the labels. If we all come together and start living with the purpose of completing one good deed each day, we'd have much stronger communities.

I planned and taught lessons on teen pregnancy and sex education- without slut shaming!

Why are you participating?

We live in a world where I thought about my own labels for two hours, while I could have picked someone else's labels in two seconds. I am participating to find peace in labels- celebrate, and not fear.

I am currently working on a farm run by a non-profit called Heifer International teaching children and adults about how they can end world hunger and poverty!

Why are you participating?

We all have the possibility of changing the world in small acts! I hope that my time at Heifer Farm contributes to ending world hunger and poverty, no matter how small of an act it may seem.

I'm always doing something good, but I especially do good things for the community, like volunteering and contributing to events with my ROTC friends!

Why are you participating?

Despite all things that North has encountered this past year, I'm participating in this "No Evil" project because I think it's time us North High students and faculty show everyone that the perception they have of us is wrong!
