Over a 30 day period in September and October, Twitter analytics showed 34 million negative tweets were posted, containing words like shooting, murder, war, crime, weapons and violence…a 19 percent increase over the previous month. With so much bad news in the world, “Do Good. Live Well.” is aiming to change the conversation, if just for one week, to something more positive.
Join us starting this Sunday, Nov. 13 and pledge to use your social media channels to celebrate everything that’s good in the world for ONE WEEK. From Nov. 13 to 19, we’re encouraging the public to share and post on social media the good deeds they do, witness, or hear about, using the hashtag #DoGoodWeek.
This is an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate kindness and positivity across the country. Instead of posting about your lunch or criticizing your favorite sports team for a botched play, commit to sharing good things on social media and use the hashtag #DoGoodWeek. Some examples are below to get you started!
