It was a great day to play some golf and help support children's charities at the 25th Annual DCU for Kids Charity Golf Classic! State National was honored to be a sponsor as SNC's Jeremy Clark, Frank Oppedisano, Charlie Miller, and Mike Ventura joined our friends from Digital Federal Credit Union for some time on the links. It was also exciting to meet football legend and philanthropist Boomer Esiason, whose Boomer Esiason Foundation works to encourage people with cystic fibrosis to live active, healthy lifestyles, and to raise funds and awareness for the fight against CF. We applaud DCU for their many years of striving to improve the quality of life for children in need, and are proud to be their partner! #CharityGolf #DCUforKids #CreditUnions #BoomerEsiasonFoundation #CommunitySupport

Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy Panel Study found that the share of U.S. households who donate to charity has fallen steadily. In 2000, 66.22% of households gave to charities; in 2018 that number dropped to 49.6% Learn more insights from our recent landscape analysis: https://lnkd.in/gPpy5S_K

This simple step helps make a huge difference in the lives of those who need it most
Our clients have helped to raise a milestone £1million for the SJP Charitable Foundation by switching to paperless correspondence. With every switch we donate £5 to the Charitable Foundation, helping to reduce our environmental impact whilst funding valuable community causes across the UK and overseas. This means that charities like Jamie’s Farm, who run a therapeutic programme centred around farming, family, and therapy to help young people thrive academically, socially and emotionally at school, can continue making a positive impact. Thank you to all SJP clients who have made the switch – see the difference it’s made for charities like Jamie’s Farm below: https://ow.ly/uEOR50RRoFG

🌟 Advocating for Change: Addressing the Hospice Funding Crisis 🌟 Recently, BBC News North West shed light on the critical hospice funding crisis, underscoring the urgent need for collective action. As our nation grapples with this challenge, it becomes evident that the focus must shift towards innovative solutions and community-driven initiatives to bridge the financial gaps. Wigan & Leigh Hospice insightful post, gives us just one example of the sizable percentage of everyday costs which now are even more reliant on community fundraising initiatives to continue providing these essential care services across the nation. In the wake of this pressing issue, Rosterfy’s latest white paper, 'How Volunteer Managers and Fundraising Teams can work together to meet fundraising targets' provides a roadmap for collaboration that could be instrumental in overcoming the funding shortfall. Now, more than ever, the spotlight is on community fundraising as a powerful tool to achieve the necessary funds for hospice support on a national scale. The strength of our communities lies in unity, and by coming together, we can make a tangible difference in the lives of those in need. Let's approach this challenge with empathy and sensitivity, recognizing that every contribution, big or small, plays a vital role in securing the necessary aid for hospices across the country. By embracing these insights, we can empower volunteer managers and fundraising teams to work seamlessly, amplifying our impact and ensuring that hospices receive the funding they desperately require. Together, let's turn our thoughts into action, fostering a culture of giving and support. Share your ideas, engage with local initiatives, and let's create a wave of change that uplifts the hospice community nationwide. 🌈🤝 #HospiceSupport #CommunityFundraising #RosterfyInAction #TogetherWeCan https://lnkd.in/e9zfKiit
On Wednesday, Annabel Tiffin discussed the wider hospice funding crisis on BBC News North West Tonight. For anyone who is not aware, like other hospices, Wigan & Leigh Hospice is a charity and only one third of our costs are funded, the rest we must raise through community fundraising, our shops and regular giving. It currently costs £18,500 a day to run the hospice and £12,000 of that must be raised with support from our local community. Please watch the full piece below 🎥
