Have you done anything recently, for someone else, that you feel really good about?

Around Town

Liz Iverson, with Graham

IT sales

Yes! I recently donated a whole bunch of baby clothes, that are still in really good shape but that my own babies have outgrown, to Goodwill. I feel really good about it because lots of other babies will now be able to benefit from those sweet little clothes.

Blake Iverson, with Lemon

Human resources

I just helped a neighbor demolish his dilapidated deck and then I helped him load up the materials so that he could take them all to the dump. It felt great to help him out and to be a good neighbor and friend.

Martha Jensen

Sales

About nine months ago, I moved a homeless man and his tamed feral cat into my home because I feel so strongly that no one, at the age of 75, should have spent more than 30 years living in a tent. Issues? Of course, but it’s all working out fine.

Andrea Bloom

Wellness entrepreneur

When my company was exhibiting at a conference, the woman in the booth next to mine told me about how her father was suffering with bladder cancer. I was able to inform her about so many things I’ve learned about caring for patients with bladder cancer and I gave her a lot of good information. She contacted me weeks later to let me know how helpful these concrete materials were, and how she referred to them regularly.

Mitch Levinson

Medical device engineer

I have a friend at work whose son is thinking about going into engineering. So I spent time with this young man, talking to him about his intended career path. He found it very helpful, and I felt so good about being able to give him some advice and guidance for his future.
