The Weekly Beacon: Small ways to help the community! (Week 2 / March 22)

Welcome to week two of The Weekly Beacon! For those who might be new to this initiative, The Weekly Beacon is our new tradition where we share simple, small ways you can lend a hand around 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 massive difference in someone else's day. We build this community together through everyday acts of kindness!
🌟 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. Once you earn 30 stars, you will receive the exclusive "All for one" badge!
Please join me in giving a round of applause to our trailblazers from last week who stepped up to welcome new members, shared guides, and tagged friends to help. Thank you all so much for your community spirit and for getting this initiative off to a strong start!

💙 This Week’s Asks 💙
If you have a few minutes today, here are some simple ways you can lend a hand this week:
- Check the Newbie Hub for people introducing themselves, and drop into their posts to acknowledge them
- Greet someone in the Welcome thread (click the >> to go to the most recent page)
- Tell a peer they’re doing a great job in the rooms using this recognition form. / Nominate a listener for a Tulip Award
- Give out a resource to someone! Examples: the 7 Cups Basics, the Listener Quick Guide, or a self-help guide
- Leave a kind review or send a thank-you message to a Listener or community member who has positively impacted your journey recently.
If you can do even one of these things, whether just once or for multiple days this week, please reply to this thread and let me know what you did to support our community! It can be anything, not just things off the list!
Don't forget to tag your friends so they can pitch in and earn stars, and you earn a star for tagging too, as that is also a kindness task!! Let's see how many stars we can hand out next week!
Thank you for always looking out for each other. You make this community shine!
