Dementia affects millions of people worldwide, impacting not only individuals but also their families and caregivers. As part of our Making a Real Difference Awards night, we hosted a charity raffle, with all proceeds going directly to Alzheimer's Support, our corporate charity partner. Grant Newton, Head of Day Care Services at Alzheimer's Support, joined us for the event and drew the lucky winners of three hampers filled with locally sourced farm shop produce. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our attendees, we raised over £3,600. This amount was matched by apetito | Wiltshire Farm Foods, bringing the total donation to more than £7,000 for Alzheimer's Support. Through our valued partnership, we are proud to be helping make a real difference to the lives of those living with dementia across Wiltshire. #AlzheimersSupport #DementiaAwareness #MakingARealDifference

Every quarter our team takes part in a charitable event to raise vital funds for Alzheimer's Research UK, our 2024 Charity Partner, and last quarter was no exception. We took part in the Walk for A Cure event and donated £1,057! In addition to our fundraising efforts, here at Warman O'Brien we also donate a percentage of our quarterly billings to our Charity Partner. Dementia is the fastest-rising health condition in the UK and one of the biggest long-term health challenges we face, which is why investing in research is crucial for achieving breakthroughs and delivering life-changing treatments. We've just hit 70% of our yearly fundraising target. You can support our team and donate on our JustGiving page to help us reach the £7,000 target: https://lnkd.in/dgEVfJZ8 #Alzheimer #AlzheimerResearch #AlzheimerDisease #LifeSciences #LifeSciencesRecruitment

⭐ The Power of Paying It Back—and Paying It Forward Achieving financial freedom through multifamily apartment investing has been an incredible journey, but it’s far from the ultimate goal. For me, true success comes when we give back to the communities that have supported us and pay it forward by helping those in need. One of the greatest joys I've experienced is using the freedom I've gained to uplift others—whether through charitable donations, supporting local causes, or mentoring those just starting their own journey. By giving back, we create a ripple effect of generosity that touches many lives. Here are some causes my wife and I have proudly supported: 🔷 OCUnited: A coalition of citizens, nonprofits, and churches working to heal and prevent trauma through restorative relationships and holistic care in Orange County, California (ocunited.org). 🔶 Camp Agape California: A free, four-day camp for children of incarcerated parents, offering them opportunities for spiritual, social, and relational growth, and preparing them for restorative relationships with their parents upon release. 🔷 Operation Christmas Child (Samaritan’s Purse): Demonstrating God’s love to children in need around the world by sending shoeboxes packed with quality gifts to over 100 countries (samaritanspurse.org). 🔶 Malibu Triathlon: Over six years, I’ve raised more than $40,000 for pediatric cancer research at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles through this event (malibutri.com). 🔷 Second Harvest Food Bank Orange County: Providing consistent access to nutritious food, fostering health, and creating a foundation for strong communities (feedoc.org). 🔶 Fullerton Free Church Ministries: We have served as peer counselors, helping others navigate life’s challenges (fullertonfree.com). 🔷 The Third Option: A skills-based program that fosters stronger, more fulfilling relationships, where we’ve served as small group facilitators (thethirdoptionoc.com). Throughout these experiences, I’ve been fortunate to stand alongside incredible individuals such as Chandra Wilson and Sandra Oh who I shared a mission of service with raising funds for mitochondrial disease research. Who knew at the time? I could have been the next "McSteamy" or "McDreamy!" But, instead, I chose a path where the greatest role I can play is helping others thrive. How are you paying it forward? #PayItForward #GivingBack #CommunityImpact

Every quarter our team takes part in a charitable event and makes a quarterly donation from the overall billings at the end of each quarter, contributed by the hard work of each member of our passionate team.

A regular, reliable income is essential for St Ann’s, enabling us to care for patients and their loved ones, like Joanna, both now and in the future. 🩵 One of the best ways to support us is through regular donations. This provides a stable income stream for the hospice, allowing us to plan more effectively, operate more efficiently, and help as many people as possible who are impacted by life-limiting illnesses. You can choose to donate monthly, quarterly, or annually, and the amount is entirely up to you. Learn more about regular giving and the difference you can make here: https://buff.ly/4f7zzTX
