🎁 Season of Giving 🎁 Five ways you can support #GivingTuesday >>> 💲 Donate Money: Contribute to a charity or cause you care about. Even small donations can make a big difference to organizations like PerspectAbility Inc. ⌚ Volunteer Your Time: Offer your skills and time to local organizations. Whether it's helping at a food bank, animal shelter, or community garden, your efforts can have a significant impact. 💹 Fundraise for a Cause: Start a fundraising campaign for a cause you believe in. You can organize events like bake sales, charity runs, or online fundraisers to gather support from your community. 🥫 Donate Goods and Services: Provide items like food, clothing, or toys to those in need. Many organizations run drives for these items, especially during the holiday season. 🛒 Shop with Purpose: Purchase from brands that give back. Many companies donate a portion of their profits to charitable causes, so your holiday shopping can also support Giving Tuesday.

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday! - Did you know that the need for Food Banks has increased by 25% in the last year, and that 43% of those users had never had to use a Food Bank before? In the GTA, 1 in 10 people need to use a Food Bank. - Did you also know that because of this record high demand, about 40% of food banks in the province have had to decrease the amount of food they provide, meaning more people are going to go hungry? - Another issue is that less people are able to give donations because of unemployment etc - I am one of them, as I used to be a monthly donor to the Daily Bread Food Bank, but have been out of work since June 4, 2024 and had to stop giving. Please consider donating to your local food bank and help people facing food insecurity. For organizations like The Daily Bread Food Bank, they will be matching donations tomorrow, meaning that your donation will provide TWICE the amount of food, and hope. #strongertogether #helponeanother #givingtuesday #foodinsecurity #feedontario #cp24 #dailybreadfoodbank

People exchange gift cards at partner charity shops for the clothing they want and need 5.

It's the holiday season, and a lot of giving is happening. That's great! But a lot of the giving is as a result of being asked. Do you know what makes fundraising so expensive and hard? Few people make charitable donations without first being asked. In other words, many of us don't give to charity without fundraising. Put another way, without charities spending money to find and ask us to give, we don't give. While (especially some) charities certainly share the 'blame' of a sector whose fundraising costs are too high, it's important to reflect on our own role. A goal for me is to contribute to reduced fundraising costs by increasing the number of people who choose to donate charitably on their own. I want to increase the number of people who make giving a part of their chosen lifestyle because I know that those donors are the most cost-effective and tend to create the most change. Imagine if giving season could be all year round rather than a few months. 💭 💭 Check out the rest of my conversation with Justin Chung on the Money Dad podcast: https://bit.ly/3ZVFS6n

As the holiday season inspires generosity, remember that your charitable contributions made by December 31 can also provide valuable tax benefits. As you wrap up your contributions, keep these important points in mind: ✅ Verify that your donations are made to IRS-approved charitable organizations. ✅ Keep thorough records for your tax documentation. ✅ Remember the deduction limits: generally, cash donations up to 60% of your AGI and non-cash donations up to 50% of your AGI for public charities. If you have any questions or need guidance on your charitable giving strategy, any of our Axley & Rode advisors are here to assist you!

🎄 Spreading Christmas Cheer Through Charitable Giving 🎁 At Ital Logistics Limited, we’ve always believed that the true spirit of Christmas is about giving back. That’s why, instead of sending corporate gifts, we dedicate our resources each year to support charities that are making a real difference—especially those that often lack the larger, more widespread support they deserve. This year, with input from our wonderful team, we are proud to make donations to the following organisations, all of which are doing incredible work in their communities: ▪️ Bolton Destitute Animal Shelter 🐾 ▪️ Coffee4Craig ☕ ▪️ Veterans Into Logistics 🎖️ ▪️ Animals In Distress Field Of Dreams 🐕 ▪️ Bootle Bucks Inclusion FC ⚽ These donations will help each of these charities continue to achieve their vital goals—whether it’s supporting vulnerable animals, assisting the homeless, providing opportunities for veterans, or giving young people the chance to thrive through sport. We are confident that these contributions will have a lasting impact on the communities they serve. At Ital, we’re proud to support causes that matter and believe in the importance of giving back to the community—not just at Christmas, but throughout the year. It’s our small way of making a positive difference and helping those who need it most.

Salvation Army’s 2024 State of the Nation Report indicates food support services nationwide have seen a 40% increase in demand. 40% 🤯 That's hard to read. There's so much need out there and we know everyday organisations like Fair Food NZ, Kura Kai, The Salvation Army and more are all trying their best to meet it. It's our dream to be able to meet that level of need so no one goes hungry. Our even bigger dream is that no one would go hungry in the first place. But for now, whether you're adding a small donation when you're shopping online at one of our partners, chucking an extra pack of toilet paper (one of the high-demand items at food banks) into the trolly for the food bank, or whatever small thing you can, let's try to help these charities together. Sometimes it can feel almost hopeless. But every small action makes a difference when we do it together.
