I love music and love to sing. I also play the piano. Although I'm not an "accomplished" musician I enjoy opportunities to share my love of music. I volunteer in my church and sing with the kids in our church school. I also volunteer at the day camp in the summer. It's such a joy when the kids really use their "singing voices", learn a new song and actually master singing a round. Kid's singing together is a sure "smile maker"! All the better when parents, grandparents, aunties and uncles sing along ...
Troy contacted the Worcester Women's History Project and I'm the president. It sounded like a lot of fun and I think it's a great project. Too much "demonizing" going on these days ... glad to see someone trying to celebrate our differences in a positive way.

Showing people (especially my grandchildren) that curiosity and love of learning can last a lifetime! I volunteer for Meals on Wheels and our town's historical society, and sing in a women's chorus that performs in assisted living facilities and nursing homes.
What a creative way to generate positive energy!

My biggest "good deed" of my life was being with my AIDS buddy when he died. But that was a long time ago. It is so easy to get stuck in the daily routines -- work, exercise, taking care of the house, etc. etc. and to get out of the habit of doing "good deeds." Now I like to donate my art to organizations to raise money for their causes.
When I was little I had one of those See no Evil figurines. I loved it. I tried collecting them several years ago, but only found two. So now I am my own See no evil. Thanks, Troy!

Life has been very good to me, so, upon retiring, I decided to give back to society with my time and money. I volunteer at the thrift shop at Abby's House, a shelter for women, and at Cafe for Thought in the Worcester Public Library which is staffed by Friends of the Worcester Public Library volunteers.. I regularly donate to many organizations in many walks of life: the arts, the community, education, and medicine. I also am a good friend and visit the elderly and home-bound to bring some cheer into their lives.
By supporting the No Evil Project, I hope to make the world a better place.

I'm a teacher as we all are teachers. Whatever I say and do or don't say or don't do teaches those around me. My family, friends and co-workers are a reflection at times I've noticed of something I've said or done.
Troy's idea is a good thing to think about. The world would be a better place if we would pull off the labels and see what's underneath.

I support those in ill health through volunteer opportunities.
I have an open mind and I am getting older and realize that labels and stereotypes are silly.
