DO GOOD ACTIVITY LIST

DO-GOOD-A-THON
​MAY 30th - JULY 5th

You can choose what it is that you do as your Do-Good Service act. Below are FIVE simple suggestions we are focusing on this year, but as always, any act of service you choose counts! 

  • INTENTIONALLY SHARE HELPFUL INFORMATION ON SOCIAL MEDIA - When we know better, we do better. Providing people with information that can help them live happier lives is an act of service. A way to help others from where you are, is to use social media to educate your network by sharing health information such as PSAs or Infographics. For example: Here is a PSA with Lt. Gov Bethany Hall-Long where she points to the 2-1-1 DE Help Line letting us know it's OK to not be OK youtu.be/UmlWODdntsI Share this or the PSA of your choice with your network!
  • HELP A STRANGER - Surprise a fellow citizen who you have never met with an act of kindness. One of the goals of the game is to inspire a feeling of connectedness between strangers and a great way to do that is to offer a hand or a hook up to an unexpected receiver.  For ideas on acts of kindness just search Random Act of Kindness ideas where you will find a bunch of sites like this to get ideas. RAK Ideas: www.signupgenius.com/groups/random-acts-of-kindness-ideas.cfm Show a Stranger that there are Do-Gooders everywhere!
  • MEET A NEIGHBOR - Healthy Community starts with relationships. Do you know your neighbors? Well, use the DGAT as an excuse to finally say hello to those who live around you that you have never met. Be a Do-Gooder by introducing yourself to a neighbor through a kind gesture or an act of service. Offer to help them someway like sweeping the sidewalk, or bake a treat for them. There are countless benefits to knowing your neighbors so SAY HELLO!
  • VOLUNTEER - There are countless agencies and organizations who NEED YOUR HELP! In the world of human services all sorts of jobs need to be done from short, one-off, easy lifts like a community clean up, to long term help with major duties like managing a non-profit's social media account the non-profit world has a job for perfect for how you want to help. For a vast selection of ideas and connections check out our partners at United Way Delaware right here: uwde.org/get-involved/volunteer/ You can also join a service club like the Lions Club! www.lionsclubs.org/en
  • CLEAN UP - When our community looks good, we feel good. An easy way to help improve the community is to simply take a walk with a trash bag and some gloves and pick up any trash you see. (don't touch sharps such as broken glass or needles without proper utensils) Make a habit of it and you will increase your health while helping beautify our world! Take pictures of what you collect and post it on the Do-Good-A-Thon Facebook Page!
