High Foundation’s Post

We believe that everyone deserves dignity and respect. We envision a future where everyone in our communities has the opportunity to be successful, recognizing that everyone is starting from a different place. In the spirit of this belief, we make it a practice to include the people who are most affected by an issue in our dialogue as we seek out solutions.

According to the website, GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea- a day that encourages people to do good. Below is one of my many favorite excerpts from Understanding Philanthropy by Payton and Moody: "Philanthropy, in the broad sense in which we define it, permeates our lives, whether we are conscious of it or not. There are few things that affect as many aspects of our lives as philanthropy, and yet there are few that are less understood. Philanthropy is as important in our lives as are law and medicine, subjects about which we know much more than we know about philanthropy. Philanthropy is an essential tool in our collective attempts to solve public problems, yet there is too little- or only ill-informed-consideration of philanthropy in our public conversation. Unlike business, philanthropy does not have it's own regular section in the daily newspaper; unlike politics, philanthropy rarely makes the front page. Yet in the United States alone there are millions of volunteers at work as you read this. Thousands of checks totaling millions of dollars are in the mail today to thousands of philanthropic organizations and institutions, some better known to you thank rock groups, college football teams, or breakfast cereals." #givingtuesday #philanthropy #publicgood #volunteering #donate #action #learning #philanthropic #givingtuesday2023 #voluntarysector

I keep hearing the same thing #evidencebased / #evidencebasedpractice regarding programming for our #youth involved foster care and youth that are justice-involved. Something to think about...the premise of "evidence-based" is something that HAS been done. We know that we all need and want to move the needle forward for our youth and trying new things (non-evidence-based) is an absolute must! Both can be used simultaneously to achieve our one true goal…to see our youth PROSPER.  We have to ask ourselves...over the last 10 years have we seen a huge difference in outcomes for our youth? That's it! It really is that simple. With love, Sensei Dave #nonprofitleadership #nonprofitleaders #nonprofit #atriskyouth #fostercare #youthmentalhealth #youthempowerment #youthleadership

The significance of selflessness and service to others is an important part of living a meaningful and purposeful life. It suggests that by serving others, we have a responsibility to contribute positively to the world and make a difference. #PureMomentumConsulting #NonProfitLeaders #NonProfitManagement #Sustainability #BuildingCapacity #NonProfitLeadership #Philanthropy #SocialImpact #Service #Giving

Meet Sanya & Ruhi They are high #aspirent They want to #smile They want to #dream They want to #study 🌟 Empowering Tomorrow's Leaders: A Call to Support Education for Underprivileged Children 📚 In a world brimming with opportunities, it's heartbreaking to witness countless children deprived of the chance to pursue their dreams simply because they lack access to education. At [Your NGO's Name], we believe that education is the cornerstone of a brighter future, yet for many, it remains an elusive dream. Every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and thrive. Yet, the harsh reality is that millions of children around the globe are denied this fundamental right. They face barriers such as poverty, conflict, and discrimination, which hinder their access to education and perpetuate a cycle of disadvantage. Our mission goes beyond just providing textbooks and classrooms; it's about instilling hope, igniting passions, and nurturing potential. Through our various programs and initiatives, we strive to create a supportive environment where every child feels valued, empowered, and equipped to reach for the stars. 🌟 But we cannot do it alone. We need your support to make a meaningful difference in the lives of these children. Your contributions, whether big or small, have the power to change lives and shape destinies. Together, we can rewrite the narrative for these children – from one of despair to one of hope, from limitations to boundless possibilities. 🌈 Imagine the impact we can make together – a world where every child, regardless of their circumstances, has the opportunity to fulfill their potential and become the leaders of tomorrow. It's not just about charity; it's about justice, equality, and the fundamental belief that every child deserves a fair chance at a brighter future. 🌍 Join us in our mission to empower tomorrow's leaders. Together, let's build a world where every child's dreams are within reach. Together, let's make a difference that lasts a lifetime. 💫 #NGO #Nonprofit #SocialImpact #Charity #Philanthropy #CommunityService #Volunteer #Humanitarian #GlobalDevelopment #SocialGood #donate #happiness

In 2020, philanthropy made massive commitments to racial equity. How can foundations and community organizations maintain this same urgency for racial equity over three years later?
