EMPOWERED LADIES LEAGUE
In this life, we are always bogged down with the responsibility to make choices. We always hope that these choices will lead to desired outcomes and goodness. Mostly, we cannot control that outside of us, but we can always control the choices we make. The 1,000 Good Deeds challenge is a year-long challenge intended to encourage you to be deliberate about making kind, considerate, and good choices regarding others in your day-to-day interactions throughout the world.
Completing 3 good deeds a day will help you arrive at the 1,000 good deeds in a year. This challenge will subconsciously help us ensure that we are doing our share of good in the world, and are being exemplary global citizens.
Download the file below to get started and track your good works! Remember, this is a year-long challenge. Upon completion of the challenge, you will return your packet to receive a special honor.
