Tell Us Your Good Deed

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.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

Gave a girl who is sometimes mean to me but looked hungry my snack. She was nice to me after that. :)

Why are you participating?

Because we should be nice to eachother and not be mean. And no matter how little you are, you can make a difference. Together we can make the world a better place.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

Every day I help youth to believe in themselves and their capacity for a higher education. I have great relationships with "my kids" because I treat every single one with love and respect.

Why are you participating?

We live in a society where people are judged, stereotyped, and placed in boxes. It is too easy to look at a person and make a snap judgement about who they are and what they've done based on a single aspect of their appearance, demeanor, accent, etc.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I have been a volunteer for 17+ years for the Town of Clinton's Olde Home Day. An annual event that brings the community together, both young and old. Clinton’s Olde Home Day was started in 2000, following the town’s 150th anniversary.

Why are you participating?

To show how much good there is in the world today.
