Have You Seen A Good Deed In Princeton? Tell Us About It!
Kindness takes many forms — big and small — and shows up all around Princeton.
PRINCETON, NJ — Acts of kindness happen every day in Princeton — and we want to hear about the moments, big or small, that show how neighbors support one another. Patch has partnered with T-Mobile on Good Deeds, Great Communities, a nationwide initiative that spotlights acts of kindness in communities across the country. If you’ve done a good deed, experienced one or seen one recently, we invite you to share it. At the end of the submission period, Patch will select one community, at Patch’s discretion, and make a charitable donation of $500 to a local nonprofit.
You can submit a recent act of kindness — whether it was something you did yourself or something you witnessed. If you’re submitting a kind act done by someone else, please be sure you have their permission before sharing their story.
As part of the submission, you’ll be asked for your state and ZIP code. This information helps power our real-time leaderboard, which is updated throughout the submission period so readers can follow along and encourage others in their community to participate. You’re welcome to submit more than one act of kindness, helping highlight the many ways people in Princeton show up for one another.
