What is life like as a charity fundraiser in 2024 ❓ 🎢 Well. Let me tell you. It's a wild ride. The non-profit landscape is tougher than ever. According to the latest Charity Commission annual report, there are 168,893 charities on the register for the year 2022-23. Many worthwhile causes requiring a lot of support. There are hoops to jump through out of your control: ❌your income is too high ❌your reach is too low ❌your beneficiaries are too young ❌your volunteer programme is too tricky ❌we love what you do but we've just partnered with Sally's mum's friend's dog rescue centre... But maybe it's the ex-teacher in me. This stuff NEVER puts me off. In fact, it makes me more determined than ever to make a difference for the children we serve. After a few weeks of hitting brick wall after brick wall, Monday brought the most unexpected, substantial donation from a wonderful supporter of The Country Trust ✅ Their words, "The work you do is imperative and we are delighted to support it." These words will fuel my fundraising tank with hope, optimism and belief through the next few months. So hang on in there. Enjoy the white knuckle ride. Keep the faith. #grateful #childrenswellbeing #food #farming #countryside #csr #esg #makeadifference #fundraisingsuccess #fundraisingtips #thecountrytrust

If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to regularly give charity support, then Payroll Giving could be a perfect fit. Through this form of pre-tax donating, we receive the donation before you would have paid tax on it. This means it costs less, and your support goes so much further – helping four charities and thousands of animals in need. For example, as a 20% taxpayer if you donate £10 it costs you only £8 from your take home pay, but Together for Animals receives the full £10. If you are a higher rate taxpayer a £10 donation will cost you £6, or maybe as little as £5.50. £10 per month can help our members rescue and find new homes for abandoned or neglected animals. #PayrollGiving #CSR

Today is the International Day of Charity – a fantastic opportunity to recognise the amazing work carried out by charitable organisations around the world, and to make a donation if you can. We know there are lots of charities to choose from, but here’s why we’d love you to choose RAPAID: 👉 A casualty can tragically bleed to death within just three to five minutes, often before the emergency services have time to arrive. By equipping cabs with life-saving bandages, RAPAID empowers ordinary people to flag down the vital resources they need to #stopthebleed within those first, critical minutes following an injury. 👉 RAPAID's focus is on stopping the bleed. Your funding helps us extend our mission far and wide, ensuring that emergency bandage kits are accessible in a variety of public places – from schools and taxis to workplaces and other venues. By supporting RAPAID, you're contributing to building a resilient community where people are equipped to help each other in times of crisis. Together, we’re creating a safer UK, one kit at a time. To donate, visit: https://lnkd.in/e8npec3t #InternationalDayOfCharity #RAPAID #Charity

Here are some great ideas for giving charitable, green or community-based corporate gifts this Christmas.  • Donate money to a green charity or organisation  • Buy a Christmas dinner for the homeless  • Make a donation to your chosen local charity or food bank • Adopt an animal at your local zoo or animal shelter Giving donations to charity is also tax deductive in most circumstances, so you’ll be able to deduct these charitable contributions from your end profit for the year.  It’s worth talking to us about any planned gifts, so we can advise on the tax outcomes. #accountant #Redditch #tax #charity #donate

I'm in the final throws of finishing the new St Vincent's Resourcing website (watch out for my next post on this) which can get you in a very reflective mood, and part of the discussion internally recently was focussed on why, after all these years, we're still doing what we do. We'd been talking about an exercise we did a number of years ago when trying to learn more about our staff, everyone including leadership did a basic personality test and we shared the results. It did start out as a bit of fun, but it was really interesting, with some surprising results. One thing we did notice as a trend across the business was a particular category that stood out as most common - The Helper. As with all personality traits, being a helper is both a help and a hindrance, but we did have a bit of a collective realisation then that we were very much a business that likes to help. It was the reason (and still is) that I got out of bed in the morning, and was an ingrained part of our approach to how we worked with our candidates and clients. It was also at the centre of why we were so involved with charity work for so many years. We'd organised so many events in the aid of numerous charities close to our hearts but, for numerous reasons, not least our shift to a more remote working model, our efforts in this area have waned. We're doing what we can now to get that back on track, and, for the first time in a few years, we've got back involved! A few weeks ago we took to the Isle of Bute for a cycle in aid of 2 amazing charities (details below). This journey was ruff, but knowing it'll help provide care for dogs in need made it worth it. If you believe in wagging tails, slobbery kisses, and giving pups a new leash on life, throw us a bone by donating to our JustGiving page: https://lnkd.in/gXuuVxXj Every contribution, no matter how small, will help us raise the woof! Let's show these pups that humans can be a dog's best friend too. #CharityCycle #PawsomeCause #WhosARescuedWho
