I volunteer every Sunday morning feeding and cleaning the farm animals in the barn at an animal shelter.
Kindness is important and unfortunately these days can seem to be in woefully short supply.
Here is a collection of 6288 people who have participated in the project so far. Explore and see the variety of people doing good deeds in their communities. You can also see all the labels, groups of people, photographers, and a world map of where everyone is from!

Listened to a friend who was going through a tough time.
I helped my sister edit her essay

I volunteer multiple times a year as a blood drive recruiter for the Heinlein Society. We participate with multiple hospitals in the metro Boston area, collecting donations from Science Fiction, Fantasy and Steampunk fans alike.
When people hear the terms "widow" or "disabled" they think "Oh, what a shame." I've never considered either status a reason to be pitied. These are things that have happened to me but do not define who I am.

Simple day to day deeds; assisting a person onto the bus, giving my seat up when it is crowded, holding the door for a package loaded shopper, engaging in silly faces with a child whose parent is currently overwhelmed and needs a moment to breathe. They might be little, but sometimes they have the biggest impact to a person’s day.
Every person has a story, with a thousand starts, middles, and endings. Not all stories can be told in one viewing, you have to stop and listen. Maybe a picture can help start the tale.
I try to connect to people who seem alone in public situations. Often this is as simple as eye contact and a smile on the street, or a quick "hello".
It sounds like an interesting project.

In this time of political negativism it's good to see some uplifting human traits being shown.
