Tell Us Your Good Deed

I guess my good deed that shines above all was being a foster parent for over 9 years. I helped raise, mold and redirect young lives between the ages of 9 to 18. It is an experience I certainly will not forget.

Why are you participating?

I teach salsa dancing and people of all races, creeds and colors walk through my door with the same goal..so I believe that despite our diversity, our differences , we all want the same things out of life....to live happily.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I am good to my friends at school and at home. I share my toys and my food. If one of my siblings cry, I immediately hug and kiss them and try to make them feel better.

Why are you participating?

Want the world to be a better place.

I took a punch and turned the other cheek.

Why are you participating?

Autistic kids are are just like every other child in that they want to be loved and accepted and need a little help from time to time. It doesn't matter if you're red blue or purple. You should be treated with respect.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I picked up someone stranded in middle of nowhere Maine, his car was on fire and he was headed to his cousins two towns over. He cared less about his car being on fire and more about me being diverted from where I was going. I support food assistance programs in my city. I'm on the board of a health agency.

Why are you participating?

There is too much despair in the world to not take part in something uplifting.
