Tell Us Your Good Deed

I care for people with physical and developmental disabilities and I love it!!

Why are you participating?

I feel like this is a wonderful cause. It shows that every body is different and to embrace those differences and be comfortable enough to express them and accept them.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I feel compassionate towards other people I don't even know and it helps me realize that we all carry our own cross, we all battle with our own demons and we are essentially all flawed human beings. There isn't a specific thing, but the build up of little things that I believe makes me a compassionate person. I learn to show empathy and keep in mind that sometimes, people do things out of anger, people mess up. There is already enough suffering in the world and showing someone just a little bit of love and compassion can go a long way.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

At my University we have a club dedicated to habitat for humanity and on spring break, 11 students including myself were selected to go down to New Orleans to volunteer and help build a home for two well deserving families.

Why are you participating?

I believe labels are often used against us and lead to a lot of intolerance and hate. Any moment where I am able to show that labels are damaging and that they are only used to oversimplify humans I'm willing. Though labels are just words, they somehow hold a large amount of power.

I give thoughtful gifts.

Why are you participating?

The idea of the project was one that interested me. As someone who's been negatively affected by labels, I wanted to help the effort to come together and break down those misconceptions.

I volunteer every Sunday morning feeding and cleaning the farm animals in the barn at an animal shelter.

Why are you participating?

Kindness is important and unfortunately these days can seem to be in woefully short supply.
