Recently, my team and I supported the Clean Air Together Limerick campaign, a project led by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Environment and Climate Action Team in Limerick City and County Council. Clean air plays a vital role in both environment and public health, contributing to the well-being of our communities and creating healthier spaces. Healthy Ireland and Sláintecare recognise how environmental conditions directly affect our health. By improving air quality, we strengthen the social determinants of health—where people live, learn, work, and play—creating real benefits in everyday lives. With 27 key deliverables in the Healthy Ireland strategy, this campaign exemplifies how we can drive lasting change. Clean Air Together empowers people as citizen scientists, contributing valuable data to shape policy and improve health outcomes. This collaboration highlights the strong connection between environmental actions and public health. Together, we’re building healthier, more resilient communities.

You have SO many things you have learned over the years...how about sharing your insights? I have been involved with this conference for years and it is a must-attend and if you wish to speak or to host a panel, check this out!!!

I love learning from my community of fundraisers! You all have been so critical to my development not only from a technical perspective, but in the moral/ethical challenges that can come up doing the work. If you're interested in presenting, facilitating, leading something at the conference, check this out. Speakers are compensated. Cheating Tip: With topics I want to learn about, I've recruited speakers I want to hear from, and then submitted a session as a facilitator so that I can ensure getting the learning opportunity I'm looking for. Self-serving?? You bet!

Stealth changes on Empty rates rule changes from 01 Apr 2024.... Look out for our forthcoming short video on the little known changes announced by Jeremy Hunt's team on budget day. Our number 1 prediction by our Jan 24 panel event was pretty spot-on. We are already seeing the signs that some agents are burying their heads in the sand and underplaying the net impact on landlords and from this change in England. The net saving is dropping by a quarter which cements the case that ethical empty rates mitigation, by helping the charity sector, is the last best way and carries the favour of political and public sentiment. See our Jan 24 highlights and other videos to get a taster of the "what's changing this month in England's empty rates arena?"

A strong partnership between the chief executive and board chair is essential to leading an effective organization. In our resource, here's how these general roles manifest in key responsibilities, such as fundraising or board meetings: https://hubs.ly/Q02kGhq30

This is such a great tool for organizations. There is an ongoing challenge for many nonprofit organizations to understand how the board chair (along with the full board) and chief executive fulfill their respective responsibilities as partners in leading the organization. This document clears up a lot of confusion, by describing how these committed individuals should take the lead separately and share the lead collectively in mission critical areas. Kudos BoardSource!

🦁 My fellow Lions, Can we do more and better? Today, we are 1.4 million members in 47,000 clubs across 200 countries. Our impact on the world is undeniable, and our expertise is recognized by the biggest international institutions: UN, UNESCO, UNICEF, WHO, Council of Europe... In 2023 alone, 1.2 billion dollars grants were paid out, including 65 million collected by LCIF alone. We can be proud to be Lions! But can we do as well tomorrow? For some years now, we've been struggling to increase and rejuvenate our membership, particularly in historical geographical areas such as the United States and Europe. That's why, if we want to continue the legacy bequeathed by Melvin Jones and his companions, and go beyond our goals of "Mission 1.5", we need to adapt our association to the evolutions of our times, and listen more closely to our Clubs. There are many questions we need to ask ourselves, but we have three years to address them. What is our association's carbon footprint? Aren't we in danger of being blamed for it one day? Do we really need to increase membership fees to achieve quantitative or qualitative objectives? What about electronic or proxy voting, which would enable all Clubs to express their views? Should Lionism be developed in partnership with companies? How can we change the Lions Club's image to reflect new modes of expression? How can we share our altruistic ethic in an increasingly fragmented world? The list is obviously far from exhaustive. As President of our fine association, I will work with you and the Lions General Assembly on this major modernization project. Let's not be afraid of change. We are Lion! I thank you and count on your support in Melbourne. #LionsClubsInternational #LionsClub #lionsinternational #WeServe #LCIFLions #melbourne2024 #gomesforvp https://lnkd.in/duepPnVk
