World Give Day is an annual international holiday celebrated on May 4th to promote philanthropy, charitable giving, and acts of kindness worldwide. The holiday was created in 2010 by the online fundraising platform GiveForward.com to encourage people to donate their time, money, or resources to causes they care about. On World Give Day, people are encouraged to volunteer, raise awareness, or contribute to charities and non-profit organizations in any way they can. The goal is to inspire selflessness and generosity, and to demonstrate how even small acts of kindness can have a significant positive impact on society. World Give Day is celebrated globally, with individuals, families, businesses, and communities coming together to give back. Some common ways to observe the holiday include donating food or toys, making handmade gifts, or organizing fundraisers and blood drives. The holiday serves as a reminder that giving has no set time limit and can be practiced year-round.

The Power of Giving Back – Securititle’s Charity Program Giving back is a core part of who we are at Securititle. Through our Charity initiative, we support causes close to our hearts year-round. Here’s why this matters and how you can get involved: ● Supporting the community year-round: Charity shouldn’t be seasonal. Our Charity program highlights different causes each month, from collecting coats for kids and families in winter (collecting until 12/1!) to collecting Food Pantry donations in the spring. ● Get involved: We’re always looking for partners and community members who want to make a difference. Whether you want to donate items, time, or simply spread the word, there’s a way for everyone to contribute. ● Making a difference beyond business: We believe that businesses have a responsibility to give back, and it’s something that’s close to my heart. Helping others is not just a duty—it’s a privilege.

Have you heard? Decluttering isn't just about tidying up; it's about making room for what truly matters. Your excess and extras may be someone’s demanding need. Let's take a moment to declutter our lives and donate unused materials to those in need. On this Day 21/30 of the #ECO30Impact Challenge, we implore you to: 1️⃣ Set aside time to declutter your home, focusing on areas where excess clutter tends to accumulate, such as closets, drawers, and storage spaces. 2️⃣ Sort and organize donated items into separate categories, ensuring they are clean, sorted, and ready for donation. 3️⃣ Gather items that are in good condition but no longer serve you, and donate them to households, local charities, or community organizations that can put them to good use. Feel free to tag your decluttering and donation act with us and we will be glad to amplify your impact. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in our communities. #Declutter #Donate #Helptheneedy #ECOChampions

What do we do with unwanted or duplicate gifts? Disposing of Christmas presents can be challenging. Most of the time, we don’t get rid of them for fear of offending the person or because we feel guilty. But what do we do when we know we don’t need the gift or that it will replace something we already own? Giving a second life to duplicate or unwanted gifts received during the holiday season is a great way to help people in situations of vulnerability or to contribute to the circular economy. Many non-profit organizations (NPOs) accept in-kind donations to support members of their community or to raise funds by selling them during a charity auction or a fundraising event. The gift may not be the right fit for you, but it will brighten someone else’s day. Whether it’s toys, clothing, household items, or anything else, give back and spread the magic of Christmas beyond the holiday season by giving it to an NPO and thus helping to support their mission. #inkinddonations #auctionitems #charity #helpyourcommunity

Today is International Charity Day! Did you know that 4.3 billion people worldwide helped someone they didn’t know, volunteered time, or donated money to a good cause in 2024? (World Giving Index 2024 Global Trends in Generosity) It’s no surprise that research indicates that giving to others actually puts donors in a good mood. This is especially the case, studies show, in three ways: –The act of giving feels good in the moment –People like having choices about their giving –People like to see the results of their giving We know this intuitively based on our own experiences. For instance, many of us enjoy picking out a birthday gift for a friend or family member and watching them open it. The same good feelings translate to charitable giving. Celebrate the nonprofits that mean the most to you by tagging them below. 💖

On this International Day of Charity, let's remind ourselves that charity is not just about giving donations—it's about making a real difference in people's lives. Whether it’s lending a hand, or simply spreading kindness, every act of generosity counts. By empowering others, we help build a future where empathy and generosity are the foundation of progress. Imagine the impact we can create when millions of hearts come together for a common cause! From feeding the hungry to supporting education and uplifting those in need, even the smallest efforts have the power to change the world. As we honor the spirit of charity today, let’s commit to carrying it forward throughout the year, because the world becomes a better place when we share, care, and empower. Together, we can build a future where giving isn’t an action—it’s a way of life.

Think Professor X as a Social Value Whisperer- will help you identify the good stuff that you're doing or could be doing that should be making you money already...
Definitely worth reposting this, as I know how much work has gone into fine tuning FreeWills into the fabulous free Will writing tech solution that it is. And it's lovely to see Will writing businesses nodding their head to Remember A Charity because Lucinda Frostick and team work their socks off! As do the Institute Of Legacy Management. So glad you occasionally post Carl 😄 Thank you - for being so open (confidentially and GDP securely) with the statistically significant data set you've amassed. I do love #data and as a #legacy #trainer and #marketeer, seeing conversion and the sheer quantity of people who are writing Wills, digitally increasing at a pace...although the pipeline is long, evidence of ROI (especially with a free platform) is pretty impressive. Offering a Will writing service to your #employees is an Employee Living Gain (ELG) and can be a reportable part of your #SocialValue proposition. I'll be talking about this at Chartered Institute of Fundraising #NWConference in Chester next week. What's not to like? #IncomeGeneration #CorporatePartnerships #ELGs #GiftsinWills #Tech #SocialValue #CrossSector #Collaboration
At Quick Will / FreeWills for quite some time now we have been seeing a heart-warming trend in Will writing, with more and more people choosing to leave pledged gifts to charities. It’s a powerful reminder of how we can make a lasting impact to the causes we care about. A huge thank you to Remember A Charity for the incredible work they do behind the scenes, raising awareness and supporting the inclusion of charitable gifts in wills. Their dedication helps to ensure that charities continue to thrive and make a difference for generations to come. If you're thinking of creating or updating your Will, with us or any other reputable Will writing company, why not consider leaving a gift to a charity close to your heart? It’s a simple way to leave a legacy of kindness. 🌱 #RememberACharity #RememberACharityWeek #WillsAndCharity #LeaveALegacy #GivingBack #CharitableGifts

Today is the launch of our #LCBAKindness Campaign, a movement dedicated to celebrating and spreading kindness in our communities. Whether you’re an LCBA member or not, we invite everyone to participate in this initiative to promote goodwill and positivity! For every act of kindness shared through our website at www.LCBAlife.org, LCBA will donate $10 to a different charity each month. If you share your act of kindness on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn using the hashtag #LCBAKindness, we’ll double that donation to $20. Together, we can make a real difference, with donations totaling up to $1,000 each month. Simple acts like helping a neighbor, volunteering your time, or sending a thoughtful card can go a long way. Let’s work together to make kindness count! To start the campaign off, we’ll be donating to Feeding America for the month of October. Feeding America is a nationwide network of food banks that works to combat hunger and provide meals to those in need. With every $1 donated, they can help provide at least 10 meals to families in need. Your kindness could make a significant impact on the lives of many. It costs $0.00 to be kind, but LCBA will donate $10–$20 for your acts of kindness! 💚 #LCBAKindness #LCBAlife #LCBA #Fraternal #FraternalBenefitSociety #TomorrowTogether #LifeInsurance #LifeInsuranceWithaConscience #DifferentKindofLifeInsurance

There are lots of ways that you can help us to help vulnerable people in your community. Our Empowerment Fund is purely for costs that aren't covered in project pots - it's for things like home furnishings to make our houses more comfortable; it's for transport to appointments; it's for clothes for interviews and it's for those all-essential food parcels in an emergency. Your help can make all the difference.
