RA volunteer Rea lives in Europe but saw a friend in need all the way in Haiti. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Mardi and his family were unable to get food on the table. Rea, with a little help from RA, sent them two large packages of food.

Tine, an RA volunteer, donated diverse books to her local elementary school. "It made me realize how important casual encounters are and that through those books children might be able to normalize other concepts of families or people having disabilities."

Today we're starting a regular donation to the local food bank, popping an item in every time we do a shop at the supermarket. My 12 year old is also doing a donation through Scouts of festive treats for other kids at Christmas

Our amazing RA team — Lotti, Ann-Kathrin, Kim, Malene, Tine, Antje & Krissi — joined forces in Düsseldorf to support a local animal shelter. 💙
They researched shelters, found one in need, reached out, and donated the items requested

Day 11: Food waste affects food equity and the environment, but you can avoid it more easily than you think (and with creativity!) For instance, I had some leftover potato that I turned into a mini potato salad quickly (with Old Bay - Maryland Pride!) #ThankYouRachel

When you add a photo to a post, you will see ALT + in the corner. The plus sign means there is no alt text yet added, and you can click there to add it.
Enter a brief description of the image to add context - what is this picture? Then click save to save the alt text.
You can see there is a checkmark next to ALT in the picture now, confirming the picture now has alt text and is therefore accessible.
Day 10: Did you know that adding alt text to images in BlueSky makes your content accessible to those with vision impairment and it’s easy to do? Aim to be inclusive with these instructions below #ThankYouRachel

Meal planning paper and pens.
Day 7: Meal plan with me to avoid food waste! When I grocery shop with recipes in mind, I can make sure I’m not buying more than I need. Plus, I have more in my pantry than I think, so meal planning helps avoid overstocking. Save money and help your community! #ThankYouRachel

Book Alone with You in the Ether and mug on couch.
Day 5: RA has helped me remember that it’s important to be kind to yourself as well. For me, that looks like getting cozy with a good book and a mug of hot chocolate ☕️ #ThankYouRachel

Gluten-free food items in a bag to be donated.
Day 4: If you are able, consider donating food to your local food bank! The one near me accepts allergy-friendly items, so I dropped these off a couple weeks ago. RA helped show me that every little bit can make a major difference in your community! #ThankYouRachel

Animal shelters are often underfunded and rely on everyday people to keep running. Luckily, RA Volunteer Jennie has a heart for helping cats. She turned her passion into action using Random Acts grant funding, and made a few furry friends (over 300!) along the way. #ThankYouRachel

To say #ThankYouRachel Miner for years of kindness and magic through @randomacts.org, @jglock9.bsky.social and I donated used towels to our local animal shelter. The benefit is twofold; a shelter receives a much-needed resource and we keep textiles out of a landfill! #Reduce #Reuse #Recycle

Day 3: Throwing back to the first staff act I did with RA - a local animal shelter (BARCS) listed a pet gate as a high-priority wishlist item so that pets uncomfortable with crates/cages could feel safe and at ease. Thank you RA for helping me get this to them 💜 #ThankYouRachel
