The Salvation Army is celebrating "Doing the Most Good Week" From May 11-17.

It is designed to focus and bring attention to individuals and groups, who through their actions and donations are "Doing the Most Good" to help their communities.

Here's how you nominate someone. Email essay@wdiv.com with the person's name, phone number and why they should be nominated in an essay (25 words or less) by May 4.

The Salvation Army and WDIV will pick the person who "Does the Most Good." The person chosen will win an autographed Red Wing Jersey and two tickets to see the Red Wings during the playoffs in WDIV's suite at Joe Louis Arena.

So, what can you do to "Do the Most Good?"

Here are some ideas;

When you buy in bulk, share your surplus by putting aside one of the non-perishable food items aside to drop off at any TSA location. Bring flowers to work and share them with your coworkers. Volunteer to be a tutor in a TSA after-school program. Join The Salvation Army in their visits to sing to seniors and residents of nursing homes. Offer a couple of hours of baby-sitting service to friends and family. Have a Salvation Army Day at work, with employees bringing nonperishable food and toys to donate to the charity. Pay a compliment at least once a day. Dial a smile and call or visit a housebound person or older relative. Say something nice to everyone you meet. Volunteer at your local Salvation Army Corps. Give the gift of your smile to everyone you meet. Do the WRITE thing by sending a few kind words and a cookie or two to our soldiers overseas. Tell your husband/wife or children why you love them. Spread the word about The Salvation Army. Log on to SixDegrees.org to create a “badge” explaining why TSA is meaningful to you, then integrate a link to your badge into your e-mail signature. Give your stuff a second life by donating old clothes to The Salvation Army Thrift Stores. Tell your coworkers that you think they’re doing a good job. Give toys to children at a TSA shelter. Make a daily donation to The Salvation Army. If you can’t afford to give a hefty lump sum to charity, put aside a dollar a day. For one week, act on every single thought of generosity that arises in your heart and notice what happens. Get an A for effort by helping The Salvation Army’s after-school programs. By donating as little as $25 you’ll earn a gold star! Relinquish a parking spot to someone at the mall. Say thank you.
