Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
As a teacher of students with disabilities, I make sure that everyday I provide my students with the support, resources, and the care they need in order to ensure their personal growth and academic success. Being part of my students' growth and success is very rewarding and it is one of the reasons why I love my job so much. As a mother, and as a professional Latina woman, I want to be a role model for my sons and students. I want them to know that with motivation, dedication, and effort dreams and goals can be achieved.
Why are you participating?: 

I like the No Evil Project concept that promotes the fact that what makes us special and unique are our differences!

Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I work with homeless families because it is very hard to be a family when you don't have a home.
Why are you participating?: 

It is a cool idea and I am not evil. Evil gets too much attention; it's time to focus on the good.

Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I am a gay/trans-rights activist, spent high school forming a small private school's first Gay/Straight Alliance, & college canvassing neighborhoods for the HRC. I work hard to make sure my kids don't use/see labels --- which is incredibly difficult in the small, nearly-all-white Protestant town that I live in. I also spend a few evenings a week working for the United Way & their various fundraisers and volunteering at the various organizations that the United Way supports. I am an actress in a local theater company, and love the joy it brings to our audience members.
Why are you participating?: 

I've worked against labels my whole life. I hate that when people see me they assume things. I think it's wonderful that this project is working to make people see beyond what is in front of their face and into the person that lies beneath. Sometimes the labels are right.

Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
Helped people young and old cook for health.
Why are you participating?: 

Labels build walls and I want to help build an unobstructed world for my daughter (and yours!). This project works to break down barriers and to help us see each other for who we are.
