Tell Us Your Good Deed

I have been working with inner city kids every summer since I was 16 years old. Most people would hate the thought of spending every morning with "crazy kids," but working with children is truly a blessing for me. My good deeds consists making people smile, educating, and learning from our youth.

Why are you participating?

I was interested in this project and think more people should spread positive deeds on the web. Its also a chance to eliminate assumptions about people that may look different from you.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I try to volunteer as much as I possibly can. I always say that if every one of us gave at least 4 hours of our time a week to volunteer activities, there would be no end to the things that we could accomplish for those in need.

Why are you participating?

It's a GREAT idea and it's just the right thing to do. When I was younger, I was told that Photography wasn't a REAL career and I wasn't allowed to pursue it in school. Years and many false starts later, I have decided to pursue that dream.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

Some good deeds are little things you do without even thinking about it; taking my elderly neighbors donations to Boomerangs or helping my nephew with his homework. Last year I decided to actually put some effort into doing a good deed and joined CCFA's Team Challenge
