Tell Us Your Good Deed

I walked 25 miles on the overnight leg at "The Relay for Life", and helped our team raise lots of money for the cause. I try to be kind to people every day, remind myself to not judge, and to be grateful for all that is good in life.

Why are you participating?

Promoting goodness is reason enough to be a part of this.

I read to my daughter every night.

Why are you participating?

I am making my mark on the world by raising my daughter to be a great person. When I'm grown up, I'll find different ways to change the world...

I work hard to offer praise whenever possible to people I know and to total strangers. Further, I teach my students that all people need praise, and I encourage my students to share praise often.

Why are you participating?

Just thinks it's a wicked cool idea, and it was something I could share with my daughter.

I served on the Worcester Arts Council for 3.5 years- volunteering as an art advocate and helping to impact my community through all types of arts.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I volunteer for my kids' schools and PTO, I have a rescue dog and two rescue cats, and participate in Relay for Life and Livestrong events every summer. I would rather be "making memories" for my children than doing almost anything else.

Why are you participating?

People often make judgments on first glance and have to be convinced otherwise by interacting with the person a while. And some people don't even interact, so changing their mind isn't even an option. That's sad.

My kids and I deliver vegan desserts to neighbors.

Why are you participating?

The older I get, the less comfortable I am with labels - both for myself and others. Life is about change and evolution and eventual dissolution. So we must learn to unlearn, let go, and offer freedom to others and ourselves.

My husband and I are Foster Parents. We provide a safe, stable, happy home for those children who may not be as fortunate and in the process teach our own children to be tolerate and the benefits of giving back.

Why are you participating?

It's a good cause and I like what it stands for. I've been judged wrongly because I'm shy, because I choose to have tattoos, because I was young when I had my boys. It's no fun to be judged on outwards appearances.
