Just the other day while shopping in the craft store, I looked down and saw a $5 dollar bill. I then said out loud, "Did anyone lose money?" People looked at me and shook their heads No. I then told the cashier and she picked it up and saved it in case anyone was looking for it.

Every year I volunteer as a lifeguard at the Windham Special Olympics swim meet as a lifeguard. Athletes from all across Connecticut come to compete and to enjoy different sport clinics. I love seeing the smiles on the athletes faces as they finish their events and are so proud of themselves for accomplishing their goals.
I was passing by and was asked to participate. I hope that this project shows that what you see and that labels are only a tiny bit of who we are.
I don't believe in telling the good I do for people. I don't need to be recognized, I do it for the good.
I try to go out of my way each and every day to do at least one good deed! I love to make people smile!

Everyone has good in them and everyone is different. I'm so proud to work in such a diverse school. People's differences are beautiful and encouraging. I love giving back to the community, and to my students in need. Support Andy’s Attic
I think this is a brilliant way to get everyone to stand up against stereotypes, bullying, and a way to feel positive about who you are.

I worked with two other teachers to coordinate a homeroom/community action project. We collected towels for veterans in the community.
As an art teacher, I think this is a good, fun, interesting project to be involved in. It's great that it's open to students and teachers/staff alike.
