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!

Starting next week, @MeilleureAmie will be leading this campaign as its first Project Agent! Amie stepped up to the plate when I needed help managing this and has been an absolute legend. I am excited to see Amie carry the torch! Please give Amie congrats in the replies!!
