All around us, there are things occurring daily that threaten to undo what so many of our fellow citizens made the ultimate sacrifice for. And, if we do not stand and fight to protect the rights and privileges that make America who she is, then our commemorations ring hollow. If we are not doing what we can do to preserve what many died for, then we are failing to carry on. How do we honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice as we go about our daily lives? Do you feel that some basic rights and privileges they fought and died for are at risk? What are you prepared to do about it? https://lnkd.in/gVZdWep #MemorialDay #sacrifice #equalrights

#WeRemember. The day our city was changed forever. Theresa is a remarkable example of resiliency, just like our city has been. If you get a chance, read her #SurvivorStory in the link below.
29 years ago, our community was forever changed. #WeRemember those who were killed on April 19, 1995, and pay tribute to the brave and selfless first responders who confronted danger head-on. We are honored to have Theresa Howell, a MACU staff member and Oklahoma City bombing survivor, share her remarkable story. Theresa believes good things come with tragedy — her faith only grew stronger after that fateful day: "I always look for the light in any dark situation because, with the grace of God, there is always light and His blessings." 🙏 Click here to read Theresa's full story: https://bit.ly/3Uojp0b

No one wants to talk about the what ifs … I died, he died, she died. We don’t want to think about it in case it happens. But every day hundreds of South African families experience a death. And being prepared for something that will definitely happen doesn’t mean you are inviting it to happen today. That’s why our latest article explains the steps in winding up an estate. So you and those your business supports can understand and make good plans. And live your best life without worrying. https://lnkd.in/dGRiZh78 #SmartAboutMoney #financialeducation #estates #estateplanning #wills #moneymanagement

We always knew one day we’d hear Noah’s name screamed from the crowds, what we didn’t know is that this tragedy would be the reason. He was gonna be great, he had so much to offer and live for, his life meant so much…We can’t grieve until he gets justice. We won’t stop fighting until justice is served…and even then, no amount of justice will give him back to us but atleast he can rest knowing we didn’t give up and fought for him until the end. #Forever8 #JusticeForNoahand you can go to WTOC for updates, so please share

Over the last 14 years in strategy I’ve picked up creative, media and effectiveness awards for clients ranging from Tesco to Justice4Grenfell. I'm now available for freelance and consultancy work.
The fight for justice must go on
Today marks 6.5 years since the Grenfell tragedy. The community has peacefully protested throughout that time, quietly lobbied the government for change, for justice. But it hasn't come. Now, after 6.5 years, it is time to be LOUD. In the words of Justice 4 Grenfell Campaigner Yvette Williams... "...Maybe if we are loud, the government will hear us. Maybe if we are loud they will listen and serve justice to the 72+ who died needlessly in our community that night on 14th June 2017" Here Be Dragons teamed up with music producer Toddla T and rap artist Big Zuu to create, 'No Justice 4 Grenfell, No Peace' - a banger of a protest track, designed to articulate the anger and frustrations of the survivors and their families, with every stream giving proceeds directly to the community, who own the rights. Play it LOUD and remember those that died that day. Video below, track on Spotify in comments. #justice4grenfell #newwork #protest Lucian Trestler Jeff Moore Agnius Kazlauskas Lola Campbell Farzana Lalloo Dominic Radcliffe

I help keep *employees* out of the Emergency Room, and help keep *employers* out of the Courtroom & the Newsroom.
While this story pertains to a parish in Florida, I am currently working with the Dallas Diocese to help them in mitigating various physical, data and reputational risks -- hopefully 'not' like this. I'm sure this fell under the Diocese's thought process of "surely, one of our priests would never do something like _______." That's the mistake of too many in #management and #administration today, they "assume" instead of teach or train in order to "know" their people would not (fill in the blank). But also, #churches not unlike other #nonprofits face unique challenges as they obviously rely upon the public's support for their work, hence anything that potentially puts them in a bad light related to #reputationmanagement can also impact their operations and funding. #nonprofitmanagement professionals can attest to the same. For these or any #lawfirms #insurancecompanies #insurancebrokers working with such clients, perhaps we should talk. I know someone who can help, online now as well. #defensebydesign
