Giving back to the team, fighting food waste and supporting local business - it's a win-win-win scenario. Fortnightly, we purchase the short-dated food from a local grocers and give it all away to the team F.O.C. The net result is that... ✅ Our colleagues and their families achieve savings, ✅ We play our part in reducing food waste, ✅ and the local shop makes a little money back. This is just one of the philanthropic initiatives we support here at Delta. So there you have it, now you know that by choosing Delta, you're also supporting a network of charitable activities too.

Last week, Alton’s New York office took part in our Pledge 1% volunteer day initiative, once again teaming up with West Side Campaign Against Hunger (WSCAH) in Manhattan to help alleviate hunger in the city.    WSCAH’s crucial work ensures all New Yorkers have access with dignity to a choice of healthy food and support services. In support of the organization’s community-focused mission, the Alton team helped prepare 1,490 bags of fresh or shelf-stable food to serve more than 600 families in New York.     Each year Alton supports Pledge 1% https://lnkd.in/eW_ANjH, where we not only donate 1% of our revenue, but also 1% of our time to charitable causes.       Please join us in helping West Side Campaign Against Hunger with its impactful work by donating here: https://lnkd.in/d3eDAKJ   #community #socialresponsibility #corporatecitizenship #givingback #WSCAH #Pledge1%

The latest (2023) Give.org Donor Trust Special Report unveils insights on charity trust and accountability derived from a survey of over 3,100 adults in the US and Canada. Key findings reveal that while 70% of participants prioritize trust before donating, only 20% have high trust in charities. In December 2022, veterans organizations (27.9%) and not-for-profit hospitals (27.1%) surpassed religious organizations as the most trusted category for the first time. Following closely were religious organizations (26.1%), animal welfare (25.9%), and social service charities (24.9%). The report highlights the top factors signaling charity trustworthiness: 1) accomplishments shared by the organization; 2) third-party evaluation by an independent entity; 3) name recognition; 4) financial ratios (a top choice for wealthier donors); 5) passion and sincerity in the appeal. #Charity #Trust #Accountability #GiveOrg #Survey #Insights

Dignity first. That’s how North York Harvest Food Bank’s made me feel. Food donations are about more than filling shelves—they’re about honoring the dignity of those who receive or need them. Their bold message caught my attention: "The food bank ≠ the garbage." That's a gem right there! While it uses humor to illustrate a real issue (1991 expired pasta—wow! 😱), it also calls us to reflect on how we give. Two key takeaways: ➡️ Thoughtful giving starts with a simple question: Would I eat this or serve it to my loved ones? It’s a gentle nudge toward support that nourishes, respects, and truly helps our neighbors. ➡️ Posts like this highlight the power of clear, bold communication in driving meaningful change. What do you think—how can we balance honesty with encouragement in messages like this?

At OVO Foundation, we've been working to create a greener, brighter future for every child since 2014. But what exactly is a charitable foundation? A charitable foundation awards financial grants to charitable organisations. Typically these charitable organisations are aligned to the specific goals or values of the foundation. So in the case of OVO Foundation, we'll only fund charities or projects which help children and young people at the same time as the planet. Currently we fund projects with four partners through our Climate Changers programme, which has reached over 780,000 children and young people. We also give grants to 12 Community Impact Partners annually, for smaller scale projects such as community gardens, food education projects, or city farms. Our Community Impact Partners have reached over 7,000 children and young people, as well as giving OVO colleagues the opportunity to volunteer with them.  🤝 We'll introduce you to our all Climate Changers and Community Impact partners over the coming weeks. 💡 Why it matters: Every project we support must share the goals of the OVO Foundation, and help bring children and young people closer to nature to help kickstart climate action. 🔗 Funding charitable organisations' projects isn't the only thing we do. We'll share updates on all our other work throughout 2025 on our website https://lnkd.in/eb_MVHSd #sustainability #foundation #environment #climateaction #climateeducation #charitypartner
