National Give Something Away Day on July 15th is a reminder to share with others and to give something away that we can do without right now. Many of us are fortunate to have more than we need. This observance offers a chance to declutter both your physical space and your mind by encouraging you to give away or donate items you no longer need. Giving benefits everyone in the community: both the giver and the recipient. Feeling inspired? Want to participate? Here are a few items that Ritter Center can always use: ❤️ canned tuna ❤️ canned chicken ❤️ canned beans ❤️ peanut/almond butter ❤️ protein bars ❤️ tents ❤️ shoes/sneakers Food must be unopened. As for the outdoor equipment, clothing and other related items, please only bring items that are new or in very good condition if used. Ritter Center accepts in-kind donations year-round. We are accepting donations of new/unused items Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 16 Ritter Street in San Rafael.

Help us avoid a dry spell in our client pantry in 2024! We’ve been seeking companies, houses of worship, book clubs, etc. to join in our “12 Months of Caracole” donation drives to keep our client pantry stocked. Having access to proper hygiene and cleaning products is essential to maintaining health, but these items cannot be purchased with EBT cards/SNAP Benefits. With the majority of our clients living with less than $15K a year, we collect donations of the items to distribute to our clients in need. Participating is easy: 1) Pick an available month in 2024 to hold a donation drive. Visit caracole.org/collect to see what months are free! 2) Contact David White at dwhite@caracole.org or call (513) 619-1483 to confirm your organization’s participation. 3) Find out what items are most needed by visiting caracole.org/collect 4) Ask members of your organization to donate personal care and hygiene items during your designated month. 5) Get props from Caracole on social media for contributing! 6) Drop off your donations at our office in Northside, or make pick-up arrangements with us by calling David at (513) 619-1483. At Caracole, we are committed to preserving dignity for everyone we serve. As simple as it may sound, your donation of these items is an important contribution in making this happen. #DonationDrive #nonprofit #giveback #dogood #makeadifference

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday. So many Charities require the generosity of others to keep their doors open. Charities always have wish list of items to improve or, like this weekend, for The Outreach Connection, replace a failed main display freezer. TOC is where I put my efforts because my wife and Daughter-in-law founded it in 2019, Opened the food pantry on March 1st 2020 (15 days pre-covid) – feeding just eight people that month.How things have changed; Today, over 1,000 people a month rely on the food TOC provides. Cold storage is a crucial part of the operation. Situations like a broken freezer happen to great small Charities everywhere, and that loss can significantly impact how much food TOC can provide to those in need. If you want to feel your money or efforts matter, look for a Small Charity near you to donate to or volunteer at. Every dollar and hour is always appreciated. If you want to know more about TOC look below. https://lnkd.in/eXRdczYB

Founder & CSO @ First The Trousers | Author of "Brand Positioning Workbook" | Trainer & Speaker #marketing #brand positioning #brandassociations #branding #author
It's interesting that when you buy something on Bestbuy.com, the company solicits you to donate to St Jude Children's Research Hospital at check-out. They even suggest different price points. What is the connection to BestBuy? I get it when Petsmarts asks you to donate to a pet shelter at check-out. I get it when McDo lets you drop the change you get back in a donation box. But what is the link here? Why do they place the burden on consumers? They don't offer a matching program ("we'll match every $$ donated up to ..."), so it's all about getting $$ donations out of their consumers without any effort or contribution of their own. Is there a positive rub-off on BB or the creation of a positive brand association for BB (BB supports St Jude)? Maybe for inattentive shoppers, but I doubt it. To me, it is more comparable to Oprah and The Rock asking for donations to support Hawaii without committing any of their assets. Or a clerk asking for a tip even though no service was provided. Maybe I am too critical here, but this feels like green-washing, or virtue-signaling, or whatever you want to call it, to me. What do you think?
