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.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I volunteered at a local cat shelter for over a decade - cleaning litter boxes, feeding and caring for hundreds of well-deserved homeless kitties.

Why are you participating?

I am participating in the No Evil Project because they've done an awesome job putting into action the sentiment that I've long felt. Our differences should be celebrated, not tolerated or bullied.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I try to send my friends a card or a text to let them know I am thinking of them, especially if I know they are feeling down. Sometimes the littlest things can turn someone's day around.

Why are you participating?

I think this is a wonderful project, really showing that "labels" do not make a person. Actions make a person.

West Boylston, MA

Tell Us Your Good Deed

Adopted three beautiful children to give them a better life than they may have had without parents. Donate to charities when I can. Teach my children to behave, be well mannered and respectful.

Why are you participating?

I want the world to be much better than it is now.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I always try to be there for my friends, family, and even others who I don't know as well, as much as I can. I will always listen to them and comfort them when they need it, and even when they don't. :)

Why are you participating?

This is such a unique project, and it's brilliant! I love it!

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I helped in two different builds for homes for deserving families. It was so inspiring to see how many people came out to help build homes for these families without even knowing them personally...just wanting to be part of helping others in need. It was very heart warming.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I volunteered to sit up all night with my friend's colicky baby so she could sleep.

Why are you participating?

I believe appreciating our differences is a good thing.
