Tell Us Your Good Deed

I gave a man who looked down and out, my breakfast sandwich and some cash. I paid for someone's groceries who didn't have enough money to buy all her groceries.

Why are you participating?

I want to be part of a positive community of people who look at people first and remember they are someone's son, daughter, mother, etc. Not to judge, but to think first before being negative.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I've raised children to do good in the world, to understand that everything we do affects those around us.It makes me proud that each one has chosen to give of themselves to make the world a better place.

Why are you participating?

Why not? I want to go to my resting place with no regrets,nothing left undone or not done.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

One good deed I was able to take part in was to feed the less fortunate. On a cold thanksgiving day, my children and I volunteered for a program and we delivered thanksgiving dinner to elders and families in need.

Why are you participating?

There is a verse in the bible that says, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good" (Romans 12:21). I truly believe in this. I believe that everyone is capable of doing "good" things. Practicing and living a life of good deeds is a choice you make.
