🌟 #GivingTuesday: Ideas for Making a Difference on the National Day of Giving 🌟 Today marks a special day in the giving calendar - #GivingTuesday, the National Day of Giving. It's a day when individuals, businesses, and communities come together to contribute to the greater good, following the Thanksgiving weekend. At OFFOR Health, we're inspired by this global movement, which began in 2012 at 92nd Street Y in New York City, and we want to share some ideas that anyone and any organization can adopt to participate: 💡 Organize a Food Drive: Consider setting up a collection for non-perishable food items at your workplace or community center. These items can be donated to local food pantries, providing essential support to those in need. 💡 Donate Gift Cards to Shelters: Gift cards can be a practical way to help those in shelters, offering them the flexibility to purchase what they need most. 💡 Collect Toys for Hospitalized Children: Bringing joy to children spending their holidays in the hospital can be as simple as collecting new toys and donating them to pediatric wards. 💡 Make Comfort Blankets: Crafting blankets for individuals undergoing treatments like chemotherapy can offer comfort during challenging times. These are just a few ways to get involved and make a positive impact on this #GivingTuesday. We encourage everyone to take part in whatever way they can, whether it's through one of these activities, a donation, or volunteering your time. Let's use the power of social media to spread the word about #GivingTuesday. Share your acts of giving using the hashtag and inspire others to join in. Together, we can turn this day into a powerful expression of our collective generosity. #GivingTuesday #CommunityGiving #Philanthropy #MakeADifference

Just a reminder that Today is #GivingTuesday Each year countries around the world recognize the contributions made by non-profit organizations dedicated to improving the lives of others. Having been the past CIO of a non-profit org as well as coordinated several fundraising campaigns, I cannot tell you how much these groups depend on the generosity of others to keep them going. I know from personal experience that even a single dollar (or euro, or yen, or bitcoin) can make a difference in making a difference. So, consider selecting an organization that does good work in ways that align with your passions and beliefs, and make a donation today. https://lnkd.in/gGUD_zsR #MakeADifference #PayItForward #SmallActsOfKindness

Recently, Maryland adopted a new law that underscores the importance of empathy and listening to communities we serve. The bill ensures children and youth receive new luggage for their personal belongings when entering foster care or moving to a new location. At LSSNCA, we understand that providing children with their own luggage isn't just about practicality; it's about affirming their dignity and making them feel welcome. That’s why we strive to have pre-packed bags on hand for children and youth arriving in Maryland and Virginia, as well as gift cards for personalized items like home country flags – a top favorite of the kids, and comfy pillows. Gift cards are also used to purchase clothing, hygiene kits, and more. If you’d like to help ensure a slightly easier transition for unaccompanied children, making them feel valued and supported, reach out to our engagement team about in-kind donations, or make a donation today. We can’t do this work without you. #WithDignity #FosterCare #Resilient #FosterMD #FosterVA

NATIONAL GIVE SOMETHING AWAY DAY | JULY 15 Most of us have the benefit of having more than we need to live. National Give Something Away Day on July 15th offers us an opportunity to share some of our bounties. #GiveSomethingAwayDay In the United States, giving is on the rise. According to Giving USA, giving rose in all nine major categories in 2016: **Religion **Education **Human services **Giving to foundations **Health, public-society benefit **Arts **Culture and humanities **International affairs **Environment and animals. Giving benefits us all, too. It improves our community and puts much-needed services and assistance within the reach of those who need it most. The giver also benefits. Giving not only makes us feel good but it teaches gratitude, too. Whether we give financially or by offering our skills and services, we lift others up. Our words can be a gift, too. Showing empathy, encouragement, and compassion to someone during a time of need may make us feel vulnerable, but it empowers those we offer it to as well. You can also share your time with others by volunteering. While you may not think you have something to give away, you might be surprised. Tangible items like clothing, money, and food aren't always what's needed, though they may be the most common. On this day, broaden your goals and organize a give something away fundraiser. Also, look around your community, and identify the places that need you the most. Focus your energies there. HOW TO OBSERVE GIVE SOMETHING AWAY DAY In the spirit of the occasion, consider paying for the coffee of the person behind you in line. Many other ways benefit others, too. Clean out your closet or garage and make a donation. Donate to the local food pantry or little library. Volunteer your time or skills. Teaching someone gives them the opportunity to pay it forward. Create gift baskets for shelters. Start a fundraiser for your favorite charity. Help a neighbor in a time of need. While you're giving, be sure to post on social media using #GiveSomethingAwayDay.

Improving Employer Ratings for Great Companies @ Mobrium | Author, The Review Cycle | Podcast Host, The Culture Profit
Let’s give back for Christmas! Mobrium has ongoing giving efforts, but I’d love to make a bigger impact during the holidays. You’ve seen refer-a-friend programs for gift cards, but why not fuel some real good in the world instead of buying your overpriced coffee? Connect me with the right person, and if they schedule a meeting, you get to select a charitable cause and I will personally fund the donation… …just for booking a demo with us. ➡️Here’s how it works: Step 1: Add a like on this post and tag a favorite HR pro at your company. Step 2: Send an email to the same favorite HR pro that you tagged and CC our team: [email protected] You’re done! Our team will follow-up from there. After a meeting is scheduled, I’ll DM you directly to select your charitable cause to support. We’ve identified 9 charitable causes in 7 countries for you to choose from, all of which are through CWS. (See picture in comments for the full list.) And yes, you can make up to 3 referrals to other HR pros you know and unlock larger donations! PS. If you don’t know what to say in that email, I wrote a simple template you can use. (See comments.) I’m so excited to see the positive impact we can make in the world! Let’s do this! #MobriumGivesBack #Giveback #MakeADifference #EmployerReputation #CompanyCulture

In the spirit of giving and community support, I'd love to share an incredible story that recently unfolded through a local The Buy Nothing Project group her in Cary, NC. For those unfamiliar, these groups are a part of a global movement encouraging people to gift items they no longer need, fostering a culture of generosity and sustainability. A compassionate community member generously offered an item on the group, aiming to assist someone facing challenges. Moved by another member's account of a single mother and her struggle raising her nieces, she was inspired to amplify her impact. This led to a heartfelt collaboration among strangers in the Buy Nothing Group, culminating in a thoughtful gesture to gift a complete Thanksgiving dinner to the family. The story doesn't end there. In a remarkable display of collective kindness, the group members, previously strangers, united to raise and donate almost $2,000 in gifts, ensuring the family experiences a joyous and memorable Christmas. This story isn't just about the holidays; it's a testament to the power of community. It shows how complete strangers can unite to make a significant difference in the lives of others. How can we, as a business community, come together to support those in need? Whether through volunteering, donations, or sharing resources, there's always a way to contribute positively. Do you have inspiring stories or ideas on how we can make a difference in the community? Please share them in the comments below. Let's use this platform to spread positivity and inspire others to act with kindness and generosity. Together, we can create a chain reaction of goodwill and make our community a better place for all. #CommunitySupport #GivingBack #BuyNothingProject #Thanksgiving #Inspiration #BusinessForGood #Gratitude

TIS THE SEASON!!🎄⭐️ In order to celebrate our fast approaching Holiday season, we have put together a little list to help inspire some Generous Gift Giving in a time that the world needs it most ❤️ what way will you be showing your generosity this Christmas season? 🎅🎄⛪️ 1. Donate to a charity: Find a cause or organization that resonates with you and make a monetary contribution. This could be a local food bank, a homeless shelter, or an animal rescue, among others. 2. Volunteer your time: Offer your time and skills by volunteering at a local organization or community event. This could involve serving meals at a homeless shelter, participating in a toy drive, or helping out at a nursing home. 3. Gift giving: Instead of buying expensive gifts for your loved ones, consider giving more thoughtfully. Choose meaningful gifts that have sentimental value, or opt for experiential gifts such as concert tickets, spa vouchers, or cooking classes. Additionally, consider giving homemade gifts or supporting local artisans and small businesses. 4. Pay it forward: Perform random acts of kindness for strangers, such as paying for someone’s coffee or holding the door open for others. These small acts can spread joy and brighten someone’s day. 5. Support local businesses: Instead of shopping at big chain stores, make an effort to support local businesses in your community. Patronize neighborhood shops, restaurants, and artisans. This not only helps the local economy but also promotes a sense of community and connection. #strata #realestste #christmas #stratamanagement #giving #sydneystrata
