I am an advocate for creative expression.

I give all I can to those who need it- whether it be time, money, attention, or help. I am all about helping someone else's day get better even if only for a moment.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I volunteer with my Dad to help veterans. I collect food for the needy. I stand up for others in the face of bullies. I accept that we are all different, and look to see how those differences mesh together to make a better, stronger group.

Why are you participating?

I am more than a kid.
I am more than a bookworm, or sports obsessed boy.
I am a leader in the making. I am strong of mind, of will and of spirit. I have Korean blood in me, but also Acadian - so I am by nature a survivor.
I will make a positive impact on this world.

I have helped raise money for the Make A Wish foundation. It helps really sick kids get a wish granted in life.

Why are you participating?

I think it is important to have good deeds in the world because if we don’t help each other out, the world would be a miserable place to live in. I want to show people that kids can make a difference in the happiness of others.
