Tell Us Your Good Deed

I get overwhelmed by the scale of the world, so I'm studying to be a forester because it will let me do good on a medium scale, one project at a time.

Why are you participating?

There are plenty of good people in the world, and I hope that we can look past our differences and disagreements so that we can be kind to one another.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I am raising my children in the kind of household that I wish I had grown up in: safe, loving, stable and nurturing.

Why are you participating?

Labels allow people to prejudge others. I wear my 'labels' externally to push back against other people's assumptions, and want to encourage others to do the same. Being accepted for who you really are, and not how others want you to be, is empowering and gratifying.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

My friend said that he felt more comfortable in women's underwear, but his mom found his and threw them away... so I gave him some of mine.

Why are you participating?

Everyone should feel worthy and equal, never less than... I know how hard that feeling can be.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I gave my lunch to a homeless man. He needed it more than me. I think its important to give selflessly. I find anonymous acts of kindness are the ultimate gesture where nothing is expected in return.

Why are you participating?

I have realized how interconnected we all are as a human race. I have been focusing more on our commonalities than our differences, however it is the variety of character that is the beauty and fabric that unifies us all. It is our uniqueness that we have to share and teach each other.
