I completely agree that it's too common for large organisations in the charity sector to take over contracts from small, community-led groups. This undermines the unique value these smaller organisations, driven by lived experience, bring. It's time for the government and stakeholders to recognise their importance and provide them with more leadership and representation opportunities. These grassroots organisations do the hard work and achieve the results, yet larger entities often take the credit and financial gains. Supporting and empowering small, lived experience organisations is crucial for fostering genuine community engagement and impactful services.

In between reviewing proposals, fielding questions and running day to day operations – I took a minute to register DiFoggio Electric to participate in the 10th Annual Joanne Wood Scholarship Charity Golf Outing. It's a great day for the entire team for a great cause. #golftournament #customhomebuilder #luxuryhomebuilder #facilitymanagement #constructionprojectmanagement #vocationaleducationandtraining

Found on their website or registration record (Charity Commission, OSCR, Charity Commission of Northern Ireland, sometimes IRS 990 Form) a trust’s annual accounts hold a wealth of information for a fundraiser – what they support, when they meet, how much they give per award, who they’ve given to, their trustees, and governance structure. It can also give insight into the history of the trust and its founder and any future plans (such as reduced giving or winding up plans). If you have no other information sources, the accounts should provide enough info to help you make (or not make) an approach to a trust. #TrustFundraising

Your will can be a wonderful way to give back to society 🌏 The most popular way to do this is to leave any number of charitable gifts within your will. This can be done using specific amounts or as a percentage of your total estate. If you decide to leave 10% or more of the value of your estate to charity then there can also be some tax benefits. If you would like to give to charity, then you need to make sure that your will is explicitly clear and is up to date with how much and to whom you'd like to give it. #will #advanceddirective #informational #vocalise #advocate #charity #doingyourpart #givingback
