Tell Us Your Good Deed

On Tuesdays, I deliver lasagnas to folks who are struggling.

Why are you participating?

I've been lucky to be an affluent white woman and recognize that I've got advantages that everyone else should also have.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I have tried really hard to give back to other cancer survivors. I have volunteered to mentor newly diagnosed people, help people move past their treatment and become healthy and strong through exercise and support, just mainly become a resource for them and do what I can to make their experience while dealing with cancer a little bit easier.

Why are you participating?

Some labels are positive and bring about inspiration and support to people while other labels are very negative and hinder people. I want to be a part of this to show that everyone should be seen for every part of themselves not just what is on the surface.

I volunteer teach Yoga to children and adults who would otherwise not have the opportunity to experience this form of mindfulness.

Why are you participating?

I believe that everyone is intrinsically good and that these qualities are not always visible at first impression. I love how this project shows another level of everyone that could be easily overlooked because of our own judgments.
