I am extremely fortunate to have the privilege to empower girls and young women to be STRONG, SMART, & BOLD. Using the expressive arts as a platform to have their voices heard (music, theatre, dance, poetry, storytelling, visual arts, graphic arts) girls can address the difficult challenges they face growing up in today's society: including bullying, body image, self-esteem, peer pressure and healthy relationships.
Why are you participating?
I am participating because I feel it is important to bring an awareness that labels and stereotyping can be limiting and in some cases, damaging.

I try to be a giving person... every day. Whether it's a gift, a donation, a smile or simply a kind word.
Why are you participating?
I think it's a really cool project. People do good deeds every day... some small and some extraordinary. We hear about the extraordinary ones but never the small acts of kindness performed by everyday people.

I have volunteered for the Best Buddies organization and was given the opportunity to establish a one-to-one friendship with a developmentally disabled woman.
Why are you participating?
I am participating because I think fear and insecurities hold us back from being the compassionate, loving individuals that we are meant to be.

A gentleman whose prime language was Arabic stopped us for directions to NCC where his 17 yo son was attending school. There were no schools in our area with those initials. All he had were a few papers with Head Start tel numbers I called them and was given the Parent Information Center tel number. The center gave me the phone and address of NCC New Citizens Center on Main street. We were quite a distance from there, so we drove him to the center.
Why are you participating?
I think it is great idea the photos of other people brought a smile to my face it's a small thing but a great project

My biggest "good deed" of my life was being with my AIDS buddy when he died. But that was a long time ago. It is so easy to get stuck in the daily routines -- work, exercise, taking care of the house, etc. etc. and to get out of the habit of doing "good deeds." Now I like to donate my art to organizations to raise money for their causes.
Why are you participating?
When I was little I had one of those See no Evil figurines. I loved it. I tried collecting them several years ago, but only found two. So now I am my own See no evil. Thanks, Troy!
