Everyday heroes are not extinct – Harriett and Millie prove that! Two amazing volunteers, a dino wrangler and a loyal following of helpers are part of this amazing group who do good deeds and spread kindness all over the community.
Dino Deeds started a few years ago and their first day on the job took them to the Colleyville Police Department, where they delivered donuts for the officers, and to Grapevine High School’s Rise program, where they brought donations for the students who were collecting socks for the homeless. Over the past year, Dino Deeds has been actively involved in GRACE Christmas Cottage and most recently held a very successful food drive for the GRACE Food Pantry outside of Market Street in Colleyville.
“We started this because we just love our community, and we want to encourage people to give back,” Wrangler Betty says. “We would love for other people to do small things within their own communities and encourage others to support one another.”
While the Dino Deeds women often hear they make people’s days with their surprise visit, they know they are getting more in return.
“Whenever you try to do something, you think you are serving someone else, whether it’s a mission trip or meeting people, it always is so fascinating. Because it ends up that we are the ones blessed beyond measure.”
The Dino Deeds Dinosaurs do accept nominations for their visits. You can learn more about the group on their Facebook page here!
