Grateful to work for an organization Connor & Gallagher OneSource that gives back to the community. Did you know that giving can stimulate your brain's mesolimbic pathway, or what's know as the reward center. That can lead to a “helper's high” that boosts self-esteem, elevates happiness and combats feelings of depression. Consider having your organization participate in more community programs for better health & well-being. #grateful #givingbacktothecommunity #healthandwellness #wellbeing

Last week, Anick Silencieux from Support Black Charities shared a workshop with our team on Black Philanthropy in Canada. One central theme throughout Anick’s presentation was the importance of uplifting and elevating your community. This is a common motivation for why people give, and it left us with some reflections that we wanted to share with you: 👉 What does elevating my community mean to me? 👉 How can I incorporate elevating my community into my charitable giving? 👉 What steps can I take to get started?

Estate planning doesn’t have to be scary! People are often spooked by the idea – “I’m still young…it’s too complicated …” Whatever your age, life stage or circumstances, an estate plan can bring peace of mind AND ensure long-term support for the causes you value most. October is National Estate Planning Awareness Month and a great time to consider your charitable legacy.

Been fantastic to work with Be Bold Media, creating a series of 'Trustee Story' videos for the Get A-Head Charitable Trust. 🎥✨ Highlighting trustee members in hero films is a powerful way to humanise your organisation, build trust, and connect with your audience on a personal level. 🌟 #Collaboration #VideoProduction #CharityWork"

Sounds fun…

If you run a company where culture is important, a nonprofit where video storytelling helps you re-energize donations, or want to capture the memories of family members, consider creating and posting Oral Histories. To learn more, go here: https://lnkd.in/edbJdtKe
