Benevolence extends to a full set of values that include justice, courtesy,
wisdom, honesty, loyalty, self-discipline, and commitment.
Righteousness as Confucius said, “the gentleman understands what is moral;
the small man understands what is profitable.”
Courtesy stresses modesty and prudence.
Wisdom Confucius said, “Benevolence means to love and wisdom means
to understand others.”
The video shows good deeds such as,
visiting an elderly neighbor and asking if they need anything,
letting a restaurant manager know just how great their waiter

offering to help out with something in the home.

We should always be ready to help others, because
one small act can make a big difference.

“All I had to do was take 10 steps from my classroom to get to the drinking fountain and I had clean water. Before that day in school, I figured everyone lived like me. When I found out this wasn't the case, I decided I had to do something about it.”
I attended University of King’s College in Halifax on the east coast of Canada and graduated in 2014 with a Double Major in International Development and Political Science. I returned to the Foundation as a Project Manager and I am now the Executive Director. I speak around the world on water issues and the importance of making a difference no matter who you are or how old you are.
My work would not have happened without the support of my family and friends. My Ugandan pen pal, Jimmy Akana, who I met on my first trip to Uganda, is now a member of our family. Jimmy is an inspiration because he works hard and has a positive outlook. He always has a great big smile.
My advice to anyone is that, in order to make a positive change in the world, you need to find something you are passionate about and then you need to take steps to act. For me, the issue is water and sanitation.
Water is essential to all life. I hope my story is a reminder that we can all make a difference - it applies to each and every one of us.
