Tell Us Your Good Deed

As a teacher of students with disabilities, I make sure that everyday I provide my students with the support, resources, and the care they need in order to ensure their personal growth and academic success. Being part of my students' growth and success is very rewarding and it is one of the reasons why I love my job so much. As a mother, and as a professional Latina woman, I want to be a role model for my sons and students. I want them to know that with motivation, dedication, and effort dreams and goals can be achieved.

Why are you participating?

I like the No Evil Project concept that promotes the fact that what makes us special and unique are our differences!

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.

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.

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.
