The Weekly Beacon: Small ways to help the community! (August 17)
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!

Ohhhh myyyyy! Yayyyy! I am so freakin' happy for you and so proud of you! Congratulations for being the amazing one to step up and help nurture this initiative! You are definitely the right person for thr job, my friend! ❤️ You're such an amazing person.
And please do me a favor this round-- fix your 🌟 count! I feel like it's been weeks and you deserve credit for your patience and time you give counting 🌟s on top of what you do for others here. You've got to know you're valued and you deserve. Regardless of number, you shine. The same being true for all our trailblazers! We all shine! ✨️
Enjoy your new role and know that you're appreciated a great deal! Xoxo. 😘
@YourCaringConfidant
That's beautiful 💖
@YourCaringConfidant
I agree with you and what a cute graphic 😍
@YourCaringConfidant Desireeee, I have no words honestly to tell you how much I appreciate you, your presence, your words 💗 Thank youuu, thank you for alwayssss being so encouraging. From that first dragging to this moment, right here... you've been a constant. Grateful doesn't even cover it, honestly.
And the graphic?? Ah, you didn't have to go THAT hard for me 😭 I genuinely don't know how you do it... always finding a way to make people feel celebrated, not just told they're appreciated.
