Tell Us Your Good Deed

Letting undocumented high school students know I support their efforts to pursue higher education as instate students.

Why are you participating?

Because people should know about how negative stereotypes are distortions.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

Helping teenagers suffering from depression, and being a leader for those who need a role model.

Why are you participating?

As a Latino, a Satanist, a male, a pagan, or even being American, I have labels. These are all labels that come with pre-judgment and would not paint me in the best image and would send fear or discrimination, or just dislike to the eyes of an on-looker.

I've learned that judging immigrants based on the fact that they don't know English doesn't mean they are uneducated. Many of the people I have worked with our professionals in their country and are the bravest and strongest people I have ever met!
