Trevor

Worcester, MA
United States
Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
In my hometown, Marlborough, Massachusetts, I was a Boy Scout and I often volunteered at the soup kitchen on Main St. I went there and served those who needed it about once a month.
Why are you participating?: 

Professor Ellen Lokos insisted that I participate, but I've also struggled with labels my entire life. Being half black and half white, I never fit into either "black" or "white"

Jaime

Lancaster, MA
United States
Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
worked with at risk youth at Worcester State Hospital; kids who were "thrown" away needed a voice and someone who cared and listened.
Why are you participating?: 

I think this is an amazing project!

Ariandra

Worcester, MA
United States
Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I try to create a safe space for anyone that suffers from depression, anxiety and body issues, motivating everyone to push forward and love the skin they are in.
Why are you participating?: 

Labels have affected me in so many ways from being too white to represent my culture (Puerto Rican) to saying I am too fat and ugly to model/ pole, to being told I can't accomplish things because of my diagnosis and because of my trauma.

Vanta

Worcester, MA
United States
Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I try to make it a point to talk about depression / anxiety and any type of mental health to help break the taboo and bring awareness to it. I also like to try to pay a compliment in return, when I get complimented in drag.
Why are you participating?: 

I think it's very important to speak out about helping others and raising awareness about mental health, emotional / mental abuse, as well as substance abuse.
