Many people do not see an urgency to learn about money and finance, until someone they know or someone they love experience unforeseen problems. After analyzing the performance of a half a million GoFundMe medical fundraising campaigns over five years, 88% of GoFundMe campaigns did not meet their fundraising goals, and 16% of campaigns received no donations at all. The world is changing. Why not be open to learn about money and prepare for a better future? Source: https://lnkd.in/ey6H9bPV #No1withNLG #defender #financialeducation

Ever wondered how money impacts politics? Meet Anna, a boutique owner whose shop was robbed, and the criminal walked free. This injustice inspires her to run for mayor-- with no connections or funds. Now, she must choose: accept lobbyist money with strings attached or stay true to her values. Discover how different types of political funding can impact candidates and their values: ✔ Personal Funds: Full control but financially draining ✔ Public Funding: Fairness with strict regulations ✔ Individual Donations: Grassroots support but hard to gather ✔ PACs: Interest group influence ✔ Super PACs: Unlimited donations from wealthy donors and corporations https://lnkd.in/guMAcMMD

In a world that push competition, in an Industry where people are “talents”, but they have to perform perfectly or they are out, I dare you to change the status quo. All the companies out there (even more the #LuxuryIndustry) should focus on making the life of their workers easy to live in. Avoiding toxic behaviors: managers, directors, workers of tomorrow will need to show compassion and not only passion. They will need to be honest and respectful. For a better future, I believe that the change is coming and, in different cases, it has already come! #fashionindustry #sustainability #ecgs
I've seen this shared a few times, but it's such a powerful message that I had to share it too. What an incredible person. Despite battling a terrible disease, Rob Burrow dedicated himself to raising money and awareness for it. To me, this epitomizes leaving a legacy. His final message is truly inspirational. 👏 "In a world full of adversity, we must still dare to dream." RIP Rob.🕊️ Credit: BBC Breakfast

Sharing in my network. I am so proud to be a part of this important organization that will help children who are survivors of sex trafficking. I've had the pleasure of working with founders Sharon Siar, Nicole Glenn, and Kristy Knichel -- all CEOs of their own respective trucking companies who decided to take action and launch Gift of Freedom. A special shout out to Keith Godburn and Vashti Brotherhood for doing a terrific website! Here are some key take-aways on the problem... 1. Human trafficking is a global crime in which people are bought and sold for forced labor or commercial sex. Traffickers use violence, manipulation, and false promises of work opportunities or romance to exploit victims. It is estimated that about 25% of human trafficking victims are children. 2. After children are rescued, their healing journey with therapy and medical needs has just begun. Often foster families are not equipped to help this level of trauma. 3. First launching in Texas, Gift of Freedom is partnering with a strong referral network of organizations and counselors who can provide specialized care and rehabilitation for victims so that these children can build self-esteem, reclaim their lives, and create a bright future. 4. Gift of Freedom is approved by the IRS as a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization. 5. Why Texas? It ranks second (after California) in the nation for reported cases of human trafficking, and in 2020, a total of 987 human trafficking cases in Texas were reported to the National Human Trafficking Hotline. However, this is a fraction of the actual number of cases. Researchers at the University of Texas Social Work estimate that at any given time, 313,000 people are being trafficked in Texas. Of them, 79,000 are children. 6. According to founder Sharon Siar, “Numerous organizations save trafficked children from their abductors and abusers. However, after a rescue, there are not enough facilities or mental health professionals available to provide counseling services. As a result, many victims return to the streets because it’s all that they know. We started Gift of Freedom to focus on survivors and help them to reclaim and restart their lives.” For more information and to donate, visit Gift of Freedom’s website at www.giftoffreedom.org. #GiftofFreedom #TexasAgainstTrafficking #ProtectChildhood #EndHumanTrafficking #AntiTrafficking #HumanRights #GiftofFreedom
We are excited and honored to launch Gift of Freedom, with our newly created website! Gift of Freedom is a nonprofit organization that provides access to counseling for young survivors of human trafficking so they can begin the journey back to a healthy, productive, and joyful life. Check us out and donate today at www.GiftofFreedom.org. #GiftofFreedom, #TexasAgainstTrafficking, #ProtectChildhood, #EndHumanTrafficking, #AntiTrafficking, #HumanRights

PSA: IF you are an organization that needs to show little kid's faces on your social media to raise money, and then refuses to blur their faces when a survivor asks you to and then proceed to literally cuss her out? stop. just stop.
