The Weekly Beacon: Small ways to help the community! (Week 7 / April 26)
Welcome to week SEVEN 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 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. 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! Weeks 5 and 6 are combined. As always, if I am off count, PM me.

💙 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)
- Spend an hour in one of the member rooms, especially during a time of low activity. Welcome everyone who enters the chatrooms to make them feel seen. Click here to visit the Group Chats.
- Give out a resource to someone! Examples: the 7 Cups Basics, the Listener Quick Guide, or a self-help guide
- (Adult listeners) Sign up to host games in the Listener Community Room (detail post here).
- Apply for a leadership role! Listeners click here. Members, click here!
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 on 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!! ✨ You can earn up to 7 stars each week by showing up to this thread daily! ✨
Thank you for helping build this community together through everyday acts of kindness!
👋 Help Wanted!
This campaign has become wildly popular (yay!), and to keep it current and ongoing, I need a helper to round up stars every week! If you'd like to do this big ask for me, send me a PM!

@YourCaringConfidant
Yayy!! Star's are now jealous of you sweetie 🤗, you da best my 😴 twin

n i noticed that every week Ppl's are increasing by number 😮, it genuinely makes me so happy, having so many Ppl's around, so much fun 😊💞
@AiluraTheCat Me too! It's a big difference in numbers from week 1 til now. I absolutely love how more and more are coming back! The number of ⭐️🌟s here are showing it's working! Kindness contributing for the win! I love love love it! I'm sorry happy to see all those usernames on the board! Hoping next week the list of trailblazers grow even more! ❤️
@Heather225 If people hit the number of ⭐️🌟s required to earn the badge, should we still come back and document or is not necessary? I mean, it's not like it can hurt since it can still keep momentum and the thread active. 😉 What do you think?
@YourCaringConfidant
Aww yesss!! This so amazing 🤗
N hey, now I am confused 🤔, how many star's I have to collect to gain the badge 😮?? 30 right?? Or 🤔??
@AiluraTheCat Yup, you got it! You've surpassed the minimum number of 🌟⭐️s needed, because you're that freakin' awesome! 👏 H should be making the announcement next week according to the post. 😀

@YourCaringConfidant
Oh okay 😮!! Lol, i thought we'd receive the badge right after we collect enough star's 😆. Thank you for clarifying 🤗💞
