What is the national animal of Scotland? We guessed sheep. 🐑 It was wrong. So wrong. (The answer is in the comments and you’ll be surprised!) At Annapolis Valley Chamber of Commerce Trivia Night last night, we didn’t exactly crush it but we held our own. We guessed at a lot of questions and knew some right away. We also left a few blank. It brought up the topic of guessing and not being confident and sure in your answers when it comes to your financial future. It brought up the fact that so many women we meet with for the first time aren’t confident in their financial future and it keeps them up at night. They have goals but no plan. They are guessing at the steps they need to take or not taking any steps at all. So don’t be like us at Trivia Night. No more guessing, no more leaving spaces blank because you aren’t sure what to do. All it takes is one step in the right direction to feel more confident and clear. #womenempoweringwomen #womenandwealth #womeninbusiness #financialempowerment Cindy Viner, CFP® Shauna Selig

So pumped for this discussion! #usofficeofforesight #FFAA

🤲 Much like the movement we represent, Plunkett cannot do it all alone. 💪 In fact, there is demonstrable benefit when we are working with others - such as BCT, Future Economy Alliance and We're Right Here - to call for change, or seeking to influence the direction of future policy direction which impacts our sector. 💻 Read Chris Cowcher's blog about the ways we collaborate with others and the other ways we represent our members and champion the work they do. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eydC_Rpk #policychange #advocacy #charityadvocacy #collaboration  Chris Johnes

“The ultimate work of trust-based philanthropy is to build a democracy that acknowledges the role of structural racism in the creation of wealth in the United States. One where decision-making takes place in communities rather than behind foundation doors. A democracy that is a daily practice emphasizing the connections between our work and the solutions that collaboration makes possible. Like democracy, trust-based philanthropy is strengthened through practice. Its impact only grows when it’s implemented collectively.” Building a Multiracial Democracy (SSIR)

Agency Partner News | Arc4Justice In alignment with their statewide efforts to advance racial equity in the homeless response system, ARC4Justice will be launching a pilot project that will provide coaching, learning opportunities, and support to five selected CoCs as they begin to revise and refine their assessment and prioritization process with a strong emphasis on racial equity. Five diverse communities in Michigan will be selected based on their commitment and capacity to advance racial equity in the coordinated entry system and their willingness to engage in an equitable and inclusive process. Attached please find an introduction document that provides more detailed information about the Assessment and Prioritization Pilot Project including what to expect, level of commitment, and how to express interest.

🌼🌟 Altruistic August: Empowering Driven Women! 🌟🌼 💁♀️ This August, let us embrace our altruistic side and make a positive impact on the world together! 🌍💕 Being ambitious and compassionate go hand in hand, and I know we can achieve great things when we combine our ambitions with acts of kindness. Here are a few ways we can implement Altruistic August and make a difference: 1️⃣ Mentorship: Share your expertise and experiences with other women who aspire to follow in your footsteps. Offer guidance and encouragement to help them succeed and grow professionally and personally. 2️⃣ Giving Back: Dedicate some time to volunteer or support a cause close to your heart. Whether it's at a local charity, women's shelter, or environmental organization, your efforts can create a ripple effect of positive change. 3️⃣ Support Small Businesses: Amplify other women entrepreneurs by buying from their businesses, promoting their products or services, or collaborating with them. Let's lift each other up! 4️⃣ Community Engagement: Be actively involved in your community by participating in events, workshops, or fundraisers. Together, we can foster a stronger sense of unity and support. 5️⃣ Empower and Uplift: Encourage the women around you to pursue their dreams and ambitions. Your words of encouragement can be a powerful catalyst for someone else's success. 6️⃣ Environmental Consciousness: Show your love for our planet by adopting eco-friendly practices, reducing waste, and promoting sustainability. Small lifestyle changes can make a big difference. 7️⃣ Random Acts of Kindness: Spread joy by surprising someone with a kind gesture or compliment. You never know how much your positivity can brighten someone's day. And do not forget to be kind to animals. They bring us joy and give us unconditionally love. Remember, each act of kindness, no matter how small, has the potential to create a domino effect of positivity. Let's inspire and empower each other this Altruistic August! 💪💖 Together, we can change the world! >>>WHICH OF THE ABOVE ARE YOU COMMITTING TO THIS MONTH? <<< #AltruisticAugust #EmpoweringWomen #DrivenWomen #MakeADifference #WomenSupportingWomen #KindnessMatters #kindnesstoyourself #kindnesstoothers #kindnesstoanimals #managestress #increaseselfesteem #improveconfidence #wellness #wellnesscoach https://rfr.bz/l6h4jko

Older Australians are living longer with HomeCare support enabling them to maintain independence; however this often calls for increasing need for support from family & friends. Sadly, this reliance can lead to a power imbalance that can leave the older person vulnerable to abuse. There is an old saying that it takes a village to raise a child - maybe we need to extend that concept to the older members of our community. Be aware & care. #agedcareplanning #agedcarefinance #olderaustralians #retirementplanning #elderabuse #financialabuse #financialplanning #equityrelease #industrysuper
