The Weekly Beacon: Small ways to help the community! (Sept 14)
Welcome to this week's Community Beacon! For those who might be new to this initiative, The Weekly Beacon is our new tradition in which we share simple, small ways you can lend a hand in the community. The heart of 7 Cups has always been the people in it, and you do not need official badges, special training, or hours of free time to make a difference in someone else's day.
🌟 The Recognition Board 🌟
Every day you reply to these weekly threads to let us know you completed one of the tasks, you earn a star. You can earn up to 7 each week for each day of the week (1 day = 1 star). Once you earn 30 stars, you will receive the exclusive "All for one" badge!
Congratulations to everyone who has earned stars for their acts of community spirit!

Can I help? I'll try to welcome people into the room I'm in an even try to sit in inactive rooms ready to help.
@amicableBlueberry8479
That would be great, it would be appreciated if you could be a welcoming presence here 💛
It's technically my first day here, I'm very glad I came to 7 cups.
@amicableBlueberry8479
Welcome, it's very nice to meet you 🥰
@amicableBlueberry8479 Welcome to cups! 🐾💗🥰
@amicableBlueberry8479 We would absolutely love if you would participate in the weekly beacon. 😀 All you have to do is do acts of kindness around the community here. Even kindness towards yourself counts. ❤️ In order to earn a shiny gold 🌟s, don't forget to come back to the weekly thread to and post what you did for the day. The format would look like this:
Example:
Day 1: ⭐️ (the day you participated followed by number of stars)
- Spent time in ___ room
- Welcomed people
- etc.
Just list the ways you contributed for that day. Easy peasy. Right? 😀 Today (Sunday) is the last day of this current weekly thread, but if you comment today what you did you can still earn a ⭐️ star for today.
Welcome to 7 Cups. Have fun!
