Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I am an outlet to my friends, family and even strangers to come to and ask questions regarding safe sex and the LGBTQ community. I was the first person one of my friends came out to.
Why are you participating?: 

I have never had negative labels. I created and publicly identified by my own words and actions my whole life. Labels describe me; my personality, my orientation, my gender identity, how I see the world, but I never let them define me.

Activist
Volunteer
Environmentalist
Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
Too many times when I'm driving around, there's someone on a corner in need, holding up a a sign about being homeless, or in dire circumstances. Rarely do I have cash or change, but usually have snacks. I offer something to eat or drink that hasn't been opened. On the few ocassions that I haven't had anything suitable to offer, I have at least opened the window to say hello instead of ignoring them. And I make sure my kids understand the importance of acknowledging those that might need our help.
Why are you participating?: 

I've brushed off the impact of what the labels I've been given or incurred, mostly. But it can still sting when flung at someone as a dig. And it's so important to recognize your good and your deeds.

Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I like to compliment people a lot because I feel like it really makes a difference to someone's day knowing that someone likes their shirt or if they look cute today in general.
Why are you participating?: 

People should never be judged just by their labels, being a victim of this beforehand, I felt the need to participate in this.

Activist
Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I work for a vocational rehabilitation program for adults with severe and persistent mental illness. We assist individuals reach their vocational goals of going back to work and school. I have been with this program for two and a half years and have learned the meaning of hope. I have witnessed first-hand individuals go from a place of fear to a place of personal empowerment. Mental Illness is one of the most stigmatized conditions a person can be diagnosed with and everyday they fight not only their symptoms, but also society. I work side by side with some of the most intelligent, capable, kind, and welcoming individuals in the Southbridge community and they are all diagnosed with diseases that are otherwise deemed as negative. My professional goal is to combat the stigma associated with Mental Illness and promote a more inclusive society: the way the world should be.
Why are you participating?: 

I am participating because I truly believe in the mission of the No Evil Project. We all have labels but those labels don't make us who we are. What makes us who we are is how we treat each other.
