Volunteer in my children's schools and at church
Because I've seen how much labels can hurt someone and how they get in the way of really getting to know and understand another person.
I listen to others and try to help them through problems. I adopt abandoned cats. Most importantly, whenever I pass people on the street I smile at them or offer another kind gesture, because you never know if they're having a rotten day.
In the midst of all the bad in the world, goodness still exists. This project is a perfect way to prove that.
I spent some time volunteering for Habitat for Humanity building houses in Baltimore, and I was in AmeriCorps as well.

Once I saw a homeless woman on the street with a baby, I instantly stopped and gave her 5 dollars, I would have gave her more if I had more in my wallet.
Labels have made me feel insecure, sad, and less empowered in my life. I hope that degrading and hurtful labels will soon die out so that people can live together peacefully without constantly feeling judged.

Observe.
Discern.
Discuss.
Labels limit the range of our conception to 'that which has existed', and therefore can restrict evolution of or within a system. Labels ascribed to individuals promote objectification, which can lead to possession, which can to slavery.

I do try to always forward kindness and compassion.
I like the ideal of being part of something that presents the unseen, it can challenge how others may perceive one and the assumptions made.
I traveled to Costa Rica and worked to restore a school for abused children.
I believe that it is never to late to change how people judge you. And, in all my decisions I ask myself if it is worth the regret of doing it or not doing it.

I donate blankets, pillows, and newspapers to local animal shelters and spend time with the animals so they can get some love. I'm also always willing to help a friend in need.

I am a gay/trans-rights activist, spent high school forming a small private school's first Gay/Straight Alliance, & college canvassing neighborhoods for the HRC. I work hard to make sure my kids don't use/see labels --- which is incredibly difficult in the small, nearly-all-white Protestant town that I live in.
I also spend a few evenings a week working for the United Way & their various fundraisers and volunteering at the various organizations that the United Way supports.
I've worked against labels my whole life. I hate that when people see me they assume things. I think it's wonderful that this project is working to make people see beyond what is in front of their face and into the person that lies beneath. Sometimes the labels are right.
