Looking to do a good deed today? Have I got an opportunity for you and your company. Today my good friend Dan Koval gave me a tour of his company, Handi-Crafters Packaging Services in Thorndale, PA (www.hcocenter.org). This manufacturing facility provides work for adults with disabilities, giving them a chance to earn money and make a living while delivering simple goods and services. Pictured here is a new friend of mine who is helping to package Crazy Aaron’s Thinking Putty (my tween son has “invested” a lot of money in their putty!). There are two ways to help. 1. Most important: These folks need work to do! If your company has some simple manufacturing or packaging that these folks could do to help, it literally means the world to them. 2. Pretty darn important also: They need donations from corporate sponsors (they are a non-profit) to keep the hope alive. I spend a lot of time in the manufacturing world — it was nice to see a different side of things that is bringing hope and joy! Thank you, Dan. #manufacturing #disabilities #empower

Young Carers like Saeed are incredible, often sacrificing their own time to care for their family members who need it most. Did you know that 1 in 10 young Aussies are Young Carers? Statistically, they face greater barriers to entering employment, increased likelihood of experiencing mental and physical health challenges, and further educational setbacks, which can greatly impact their outcomes now and later in life. Our programs are closing these gaps, but we need your help to keep them going. Show You Care by donating to our end-of-financial-year appeal. Your support helps to fund vital services, respite, and mentoring for Young Carers, improving their quality of life and access to future opportunities! Head over to our fundraising site to learn more and donate before 30 June! All donations over $2 are tax deductible. https://ow.ly/UFGq50Skurc #ShowYouCare #LittleDreamers #YoungCarers #SupportYoungCarers #DonateNow

Hey Peeps, you know I post good news & keep troubles to myself. But I have been weeping all year because nothing means more to me than #rescue, and due to a filing glitch, Tails of Joy has been "disallowed" from fundraising everywhere; facebook, Go Fund Me, Network for Good, etc. We re-filed the corrected form MONTHS ago but gov't takes its sweet time. Mind you this is not about taxes or filing taxes, we are spotless in that area. We have a Platinum rating for transparency and accountability from Guidestar. It was a non-profit yearly filing form (rrf-1) that our treasurer accidentally left one line blank on. For that we have been punished for months and raised almost NO money this year. But so far we have given out approximately $50,000 from our savings. So, no facebook birthday wish but I do have a Paypal Birthday Wish. If you would like to donate to my birthday wish please click the link. No amount is too small, it all adds up as you know. I recommend a donation of $7.20 for the age I cannot believe I have arrived at. Thanks for listening Peeps. 24 sterling honest life saving years and the effing government paper pushers make it so more animals will die instead of fixing our file in a timely manner. https://lnkd.in/gqHvxPck

I loved Jessica Chen's perspective this week on how to answer “what do you do for work?” Too often, we default to our title, and role. "I'm the VP of X at Y company/organization". She shared this formula, “You know how (state issue)? So what I do is (share solution). For example (give proof).” It's a door opener to further conversation. Here's mine. "You know how people are carrying less and less cash these days? I help non-profits and companies collect donations and tips through in-person contactless payments. For example, our solution has helped the Salvation Army collect over $7 Million dollars over the last 4 years to allow them to help even more people in need." What do you do for work? 📷 Photo by Chris Liverani on Unsplash #Introductions #WhoAreYou #Purpose

Fractional CFO and bookkeeping firm helping overwhelmed business owners gain clarity with their business finances💸and increase their profit📈 through pristine bookkeeping and monthly financial strategy sessions 🖋️
When I have my initial consultation with a prospect, one of the questions I ask is, "What are your goals?" I encourage not only talking about business goals, but personal goals as well since our businesses usually play a vital role in helping us achieve our personal goals. When I started my firm, I asked myself the same question. One of the pillars I wanted to build my business on was giving. Before I even had any clients, I decided I would donate 5% of my revenue. For a couple years I donated to Operation Underground Railroad (OUR) but last year I made the switch to Doors to Freedom. It is also an organization that helps victims of trafficking but they are local to my area. I love what they stand for and how they help rehabilitate and care for victims. It's been really humbling each quarter to review my revenue and make my donation knowing that I wouldn't normally be able to donate or donating the amount I'm able to without my business. What are some goals that you've had for your business that you've achieved? Have you set goals that would impact others? If not, I highly encourage it! 😎 #bookkeeping #fractionalCFO #donations

🇺🇸❤️🇮🇹 When was the last time you treated a loved one to a trip without thinking about costs and how much you would spend? When was the last time you went to a grocery store and didn't have to compare the value for money just because you wanted to eat healthier? When was the last time you donated a significant amount of money without having to think twice? You see, money alone isn't worth anything, but what matters is what you can do with it, how many people you can help, how it can make you and the people you care about feel valued. NOW ask yourself when was the last time? I'm excited to know comment down and let's talk about it! #jacopoiasiello #healthyrichandhappy #moneymindset #moneymanagement #bookrecommendations

✅ Catholic Business Owners hire me to empower them to become courageous in faith, family, and finances; while adding an extra 5, 6, or 7 figures in sales in 2 years or less, guaranteed. ✅
How as a Catholic Business Owner did I integrate a mission and missionary life into my business? These are homeless seeking housing assistance and in line early in the morning in a big city. As a missionary family, we care for those in need and our Catholic business owner clients who we serve are donating into this mission called Drawn To The Truth Missions. Catholic Business Owners aren't paying but donating for our services and in exchange the funds go towards Catholic mission work! How are you using your revenue in serving in your community?
