Our team had a fantastic Volunteering Day in Penicuik, Midlothian, at the Food Fact Friends Community Hub. Through individual team member donations, as well as a Hub South East contribution, we were able to take along lots of food and toy donations to help their Xmas appeal and we were put to work on the day and given a taste of the variety of services offered by this amazing charity. From serving in the cafe, stocking the pantry, sorting toys and building shelves, to being personal shoppers and visiting local supermarkets to collect donations, the Hub team enjoyed our day and most importantly we got to hear first hand about the worthwhile work being done across Midlothian by Food Fact Friends - providing a safe space and access to food and specialist support services. The number of regular volunteers who keep places like this going is amazing and we were happy to play our small part on the day. https://lnkd.in/ez4Ku49J

Landform matched every dollar donated, doubling the impact – making the total dollars donated $2852.82! But it didn’t stop there. Our amazing team members also pitched in over 100 pounds of non-perishable food items for these charities. That’s a lot of love and support packed into every can, box, and bag. At Landform, it’s more than just about what we do—it’s about who we are. Supporting organizations like CAER and Joyce Uptown Foodshelf means helping families put meals on the table and bringing hope to those who need it most.

Volunteering is an incredible way to support your community and local charities, but finding the time to help isn’t always easy. Micro-volunteering empowers everyone to contribute to worthy causes, one small action at a time. Whether it's lending a hand to a neighbour, sharing knowledge online, or donating a few minutes of your time to a local charity, every effort counts. We’re immensely proud of our TECOSIM team, for their readiness to step in when needed and support worthy causes. #Volunteering hashtag#CommunitySupport hashtag#MicroVolunteering hashtag#MakeADifference hashtag#SmallActionsBigImpact hashtag#SupportLocalCharities hashtag#GiveBack hashtag#EmpowerChange hashtag#CommunityService hashtag#GetInvolved hashtag#SocialGood

🎄 While we focus on spreading joy through gifts, let’s not forget the spirit of generosity that defines this season. In 2023, Americans donated $499 billion to charities, with a significant portion contributed during the holiday season. Local food banks, toy drives, and charity organizations report an increase in demand during December, underscoring the importance of giving back. 💡 How can we make this season more meaningful? Consider allocating a portion of your holiday budget to support local charities or families in need. Explore creative ways to give, like organizing toy drives or volunteering time to community initiatives. The holidays are about more than spending—they’re about sharing. What are your favorite ways to give back during this time of year? Let’s discuss in the comments! #HolidaySeason #Christmas2024 #Charity #GivingBack #HolidaySpending

🎄 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.

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.

💡 From Pop Tabs to Soup Cans: Small Actions, Big Impact! 💡 Did you know that saving aluminum pop tabs—and even the tabs from soup cans—has been a beloved way to support Ronald McDonald House Charities for decades? This simple idea started years ago and has grown into a powerful tradition of community giving. How does it work? Those little tabs are made of high-quality aluminum, which we collect and recycle. The funds raised help provide a home-away-from-home for families with hospitalized children, ensuring they can stay close during critical times. Why it matters: ♻️️ Tabs are small but mighty—they’re easy to collect and store! ♻️️ It’s a fun and meaningful way to engage your family, workplace, or school. ♻️ Every tab adds up to provide comfort and care for families when they need it most. Ready to get started? Find a container or ask me for one of our RMHC little collection houses! These handy containers make it easy to gather tabs and turn them into meaningful support. From soda cans to soup cans, every tab makes a difference. Together, we’re keeping a long-standing tradition alive and creating extraordinary impact. #RMHCDayton #PopTabs #SoupCans #CollectionHouse #SmallActionsBigImpact #CommunityLove

I echo what Stephen has said. Our volunteering day at St Luke's Charity Shop in Crookes, Sheffield was indeed "hard work, but fun." Spending the whole day on our feet was quite tiring for those of us who usually sit at a desk... More importantly, it was a real eye opener too, highlighting the following points: 1). How much effort goes into running a Charity Shop, particularly behind the scenes. 2). How much money is needed by St Luke's each year in order to keep doing their fantastic work. Total required this year is £14 Million. NHS funds 25% so that leaves c.£10.5 Million to be raised through donations, legacies, retail shops and other activities. Many thousands of Sheffield folks will have their lives touched in some way by St Luke's. So if you can spare your time to volunteer, or are able to donate (either cash or unwanted items) then please give generously. You will be supporting a great cause! https://lnkd.in/euze8eyi
🌟 Yesterday, some of the DeeperThanBlue team had a fantastic time volunteering at St Luke's - Sheffield's Hospice charity shop in Crookes, Sheffield! We spent the day sorting clothes and CDs, sharing laughs with the wonderful staff, and getting a solid workout in the process. It was inspiring to see the hard work that goes on day-in-day-out to keep the shelves full and raise funds for this excellent charity. A huge shoutout to Emma, the store manager, and the rest of the St Luke's team for showing us the ropes and making us feel so welcome. We hope we made a bit of a difference! 💙 Great work Jane, Pete, Holly, Josh and Stephen #Volunteering #CommunitySupport #DeeperThanBlue

If you’re fortunate enough to have more $$ than you need, it’s always nice to give back. But with millions of charities in this country alone, deciding where to donate can be a challenge. Here’s the first big question to parse: Go global or look local? 🧑🤝🧑 Looking local? Supporting your neighborhood soup kitchen or animal shelter can directly benefit your community. Plus, local groups are often incredibly efficient with spending, which means the majority of the money you give will likely go straight to the causes that need it the most. 🌎 Prefer a global reach? Charities like United Way, Habitat for Humanity, and American Red Cross have the scale to help millions in their hour of greatest need. Small or big, make sure you choose a registered 501c3 non-profit so you’ll know your dollars are making a difference. Here’s your guide to giving back 🤝💙: https://ow.ly/Lqgp50U2N1r.

This week we're celebrating 40 years of Volunteers' Week! 🤩 Each and every one of our volunteers plays a massive part in what we're able to achieve every single day! Without them, we simply couldn't treat as many poorly pets as we do. From sorting through stock donations and getting them ready to be displayed on the shop floor, to helping our lovely customers find their perfect second-hand pieces, there’s always something fun to do and new skills to learn 👏 Why not give volunteering a go for yourself? http://pdsa.me/U7cA [Visual description: A series of clips of volunteers in various PDSA charity shops. The clips involve them sorting through clothes on the shop floor, sorting through donated books, arranging the shops displays and steaming clothes.] #VolunteersWeek #Volunteer #Volunteers #Volunteering #VolunteerOpportunities #Charity #CharityShop
