Raising Awareness & Funds for EDS 🌟 Today, I'm spotlighting a cause close to our hearts: EDS UK, a lifeline for those touched by Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. One of our own, Imogen, has courageously shared her journey with Classical EDS, enlightening us on the vital support this charity provides. Diagnosed at 25 after years of nebulous symptoms, Imogen's resilience is a beacon of hope. EDS challenges her daily, affecting work and well-being. Discovering mindfulness and a remote work model, she bravely navigates her condition with tenacity. What truly propels her forward is a remarkable work family, offering unwavering backing on tough days. This solidarity is power! Yet, it's EDS UK's pivotal role in raising awareness and fostering a supportive community that underlines the urgency of our fundraiser. This charity champions education and research, illuminating a path for those affected by EDS. For Imogen, and countless others, EDS UK is more than a charity; it's a network of understanding and support amidst the isolation chronic illness can bring. Join us in amplifying their mission. Your contribution can spark change and embody the very essence of community and compassion we cherish. #EDSAwareness #CharitySupport #TogetherStronger 🦓🤲🏼💚

The stigma associated with Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) can discourage those affected from seeking help, and perpetuate a cycle of suffering. It's crucial to remember that SUDs are medical conditions, not moral failings. Compassion, understanding, and accessible treatment options are key. We need to build communities that support recovery, offer hope, and celebrate progress. It's time to change the conversation around SUDs. If you or someone you know is struggling with substance use disorders, we are here to help. Call our hotline at 973-754-6784 or email us at admissions@evasvillage.org #Evasvillage #Wherehopebegins #EndTheStigma #SupportRecovery #SUDAwareness#Nonprofit #support #community #charity #giveback #donate #philanthropy #Patersonnj #NJ

💔 Today marks 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝘆. Heartbreakingly, more than 𝟳𝟬𝟬,𝟬𝟬𝟬 lives are lost each year globally to suicide, and it is the third leading cause of death among 15–29-year-olds. 💔 Every suicide is a tragedy that affects families, communities and entire countries and has long-lasting effects on the people left behind. 💔 For every suicide there are many more people who attempt suicide. ❤️ The theme for 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝘆 this year is "𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙉𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙤𝙣 𝙎𝙪𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙙𝙚" with the call to action "𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣." This theme aims to raise awareness about the importance of reducing stigma and encouraging open conversations to prevent suicides. Changing the narrative on suicide is about transforming how we perceive this complex issue and shifting from a culture of silence and stigma to one of openness, understanding, and support. 💕 ❤️ This call to action encourages everyone to start the conversation on suicide and suicide prevention. 🗣 Every conversation, no matter how small, contributes to a supportive and understanding society. By initiating these vital conversations, we can break down barriers, raise awareness, and create better cultures of support. 💕 𝗜𝗙 𝗬𝗢𝗨'𝗥𝗘 𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗚𝗚𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗚, 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣 𝗜𝗦 𝗔𝗩𝗔𝗜𝗟𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘!! 💜 The Lighthouse Charity 💚 Samaritans 💙 Mates in Mind 👆 Our charity partners above are here to provide support. 👇 You can find contact details for them in our post below 👇 👉 Additionally, you can find more information on the charities by clicking here: https://bit.ly/3Tli2OE #worldsuicidepreventionday #mentalhealth #calltoaction #charity #starttheconversation

Supporting survivors, patients, caregivers, through sharing stories, symptoms, information, and coping strategies.
September 5th: A Day of Charity & Hope 🌍 On this day, we honor the International Day of Charity, inspired by the legacy of Mother Teresa, who passed on September 5, 1997. Her life of selflessness and compassion for the marginalized has left an enduring impact on the world, making her a symbol of love and service. At The Oladele Foundation, we are committed to supporting African and Black communities facing chronic illnesses like cancer. While charity is critical in providing immediate relief and support, it’s not just about offering short-term help—it's about addressing long-term challenges. Charity brings immediate support to families, helping ease financial burdens, providing emotional support, and giving a lifeline to those in need. But, to truly make a lasting difference, we also need systemic change to address the underlying issues in healthcare access, support for marginalized communities, and greater awareness around health disparities. Each act of kindness—no matter how small—creates a ripple effect of positivity that touches lives. Together, through charity and advocacy for systemic change, we can make progress toward a more equitable future for all. Charity and Change Go Hand in Hand. Join Us! Get Involved. https://lnkd.in/gTWNUqdV #InternationalDayOfCharity #mothertheresa #OladeleFoundation #SupportCommunities #volunteer #HealthcareForAll #makeadifference #EndHealthInequity #blackcommunities #AfricanCancerSupportGroup

Reimagine is committed to promoting health and wellness within our community. As part of our participation in the Ride for Heart, we’re highlighting the importance of recognizing the signs of stroke, which can save lives during a medical emergency. Recognize a Stroke with FAST: F - Face: Is it drooping on one side? A - Arms: Can the person raise both arms, or is one arm weak? S - Speech: Is speech slurred or strange? T - Time: If you observe any of these signs, call 9-1-1 immediately. Knowing these signs and acting quickly can make a critical difference in stroke outcomes. Share this information with your colleagues, friends, and family to help raise awareness and potentially save lives. You can also support our participation in the Ride for Heart by donating. Donations are open until tomorrow! https://lnkd.in/gd8B-wuY #CorporateChallenge #RideForHeart #HeartAndStroke #StrokeAwareness #FAST #CommunityHealth #LifeSavingKnowledge
