‘What Makes a Great Charity’? 😊 🏆📢 Here is what Nicole Engelman of Cooper Investors Philanthropy had to say; Facta non verba – acts not words – it is through adhering to this ethos that we think a great charity is made. Great charities have that something extra. Big or small, they are established by inspiring founders and helmed by leaders with drive, passion, and purpose who are on the ground, imbedded into the community, delivering real outcomes to vulnerable people experiencing disadvantage. With empathy and compassion, a great charity listens to the voices of those it serves, understanding their needs, preferences, and aspirations. This empathy informs the design and delivery of programs that truly make a difference in people's lives. Whether through capacity-building initiatives, advocacy efforts, or long-term investments, great charities seek to create lasting change that empowers individuals and communities to thrive independently. An eye to sustainability ensures that great charities have an impact that endures beyond the immediate interventions. Ultimately, a great charity is more than the sum of its parts – it is a shining light on the hill that drives positive change and inspires other to join in the pursuit of a better world.

Community perceptions of charities and community groups are shifting. That will require a reset in some of our thinking to find a new North. Community Council for Australia CEO David Crosbie delves into an absolute must read for #charities and #communitygroups: The Community Compass. In this article for the Community Advocate he discusses four of the many issues that arose for him when reviewing the findings: indifference; volunteering; our shifting values; and community views on purpose. 'People are generally very supportive of our work, and happy to become more involved where possible, but if we really want more engagement and support, we’ll have to do more than appeal to values like fairness and equity that no longer resonate strongly with everyone in our communities.' #charities #communitygroups #nfps #giving #volunteering Finding a new north – reflections on the Community Compass Report: https://lnkd.in/gPaNX2F3

Wait, you PAY the charities! 😧 I’ve been absolutely baffled of late. We do three things at The Social Society ⚡ We make local volunteering easy by bespoke matching those who want to help a charity with said charity - We charge, it’s a service. ⚡ We help businesses improve their social impact and focus their volunteering on skills-based volunteering. It makes much more of an impact. - We charge, it’s a service. ⚡ We run events to reduce isolation and loneliness and to bring teams together. Events with impact - We charge, it’s a service. When we ask an already busy under resourced, local charity to come to one of our events to lead a workshop, to ask for help, we pay them. Yes, you heard, we pay them. I have heard 👂 the below sentence SO MANY times this week. “ They already get the help why are you paying them” Now hear me out We hope event attendees, volunteer members, and people wanting to do good have the answers our charities need. They don’t always. Sometimes they have nothing. Zero. Nada. Zip. The charity's time is valuable. They offer a service. They should be paid for said service. Also It’s simply the right thing to do. That’s all folks #dotherightthing #socialimpact #localvolunteering #teamdays
