A good deed forum!  Includes Random Acts of Kindness!

As it says on my member page, my goal is always to do one act of volunteerism a day. Well, around the holidays it gets a bit busy, so yesterday, I did all my volunteering for the week. I'm pretty proud of all I accomplished, though no one thing was very much.

I started my day by (1) clicking to donate, and (2) getting involved with a distributed network ( http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org ) and (3) spreading the word about it on Care2 and to my family and friends.

Then I (4) took a box full of canned veggies and pastas, which my kindergarten class had collected, to the food bank. I went through my own pantry before I went, and I also (5) went through all my clothes, so I took a load to the thrift store, which raises money for Purple Heart, too.

I (6) dropped off a load of magazines at the nursing home on my way back.

Then I (7) made an appointment to give blood in January.

7 days worth of little acts of kindness. (Does the appointment count, since I haven't actually given the blood? I'll say it does, since I'm the only one keeping score.)

So, nothing really awesome, but I feel good about it all. Sometimes it's fun to get it all done at once so it feels like more.
