Do a Kind Act

Can you serve something greater than yourself?


Harvesting produce for families in need at the Northern Nevada Food Bank Farm.


Assisting "shut in" seniors at Lucky Lane Mobile Home Park.


Working with the RSVP program, we collected 150 pieces of luggage to give dignity to children who were displaced from their homes.

There is such joy in being of service to others. Service is a two-way street. We share the gift of ourselves because it enriches us, not just to be a "do-gooder." It doesn't take any specialized knowledge to be of service—in your family, at work, on the streets, wherever you are, you can be of service to humanity. The greatest people we know are not famous celebrities or people with titles and degrees, but those who do the most service. The truly great is the "servant" of all.

The Conscious Community Campaign takes a hands-on approach to being of service. We are a catalyst for action and social renewal. We are building a network of relationships between individuals and organizations. You can plug in to our ongoing projects by contacting the coordinator listed below.
