Let’s honor all “heroes who bravely served our country. Our nation will forever benefit from their sacrifice, especially those who lost their lives during service. Each year, Memorial Day presents an opportunity for the U.S. to reflect on and appreciate the brave Americans who lost their lives while serving in our military. Here are 5 ways to #Acknowledge and salute them. *Acknowledge That Some Were Queer *Acknowledge The Inequitable Conditions In Which Women Served *Acknowledge That Some Died For An American Dream That Remains Unfulfilled *Acknowledge That Service Abroad Accelerated Civil Rights In America. *Acknowledge The Contributions Of Asian American, Indigenous, Latino and Pacific Islander Soldiers” Shaun Harper in Forbes article here: https://lnkd.in/egwAQRFC #OnRepeat #Inspiredbyyou! “There is an unspoken promise America has whispered to service members and their families for centuries: If something happens to you, we will take care of your family. We do our best to honor this promise, and we hope that others would do the same for us. Because we don't often talk about this promise, we don't have to face up to the fact that, as a nation, we have not kept it well. We have left the widows, widowers and orphans to battle bureaucracy alone.” Jennifer Barnhill, MPA in Military.com source below: “A majority of Americans believe military families should be cared for. Around 85% said the U.S. has the responsibility to care for military families. 71% agreed that Americans have a responsibility to care for those families. 90% , said they have a favorable view of military families — higher than the military, which was at 83% favorability, police, with 73%, and the Supreme Court, which received 55%, according to Blue Star Families/YouGov survey.” #data & excerpts by Filip T. in the The Hill source: https://lnkd.in/eci7xt-r To those who are mourning the loss of a loved one today, my heart and #advocacy is with you. May their service and sacrifice and YOURS not be forgotten. #leadership #storytelling #narrative #economy #laws #diversity #equity #inclusion #belonging #money #government #business #talent #cultureofmoney

"In memory of many; in honor of all." This Memorial Day, we want to take the time to remember and honor those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom. It is a debt we cannot repay but are eternally grateful for. #tayloredmarketingllc #usa #heroes #memorialday #thankful #marketing #branding #socialmediamanagement #contentcreation

This Memorial Day, as we remember the brave men and women who have given their lives in service to our country, let’s also reflect on the role of businesses and entrepreneurs in supporting our communities and veterans. It’s a day to acknowledge not only the ultimate sacrifice made by our service members but also the opportunities our country offers for growth and prosperity because of those sacrifices. Here are meaningful ways businesses can engage this Memorial Day: Support Veteran-Owned Businesses - Make a conscious effort to partner with and purchase from businesses owned by veterans. Their entrepreneurial spirit continues to contribute immensely to our economy. Host Fundraising Events - Organize events or promotions where a portion of proceeds goes to veteran support organizations. It's a way to give back and say thank you. Volunteer Time and Resources - Collaborate with local veterans homes and service organizations to offer your services, or provide professional mentoring to veterans transitioning to civilian careers. Educate Your Team - Use this day to educate your employees about the significance of Memorial Day and encourage them to participate in local commemoration events. Create a Memorial in Your Business - Establish a place within your business to honor employees and family members who have served, fostering a deeper connection within your community. Memorial Day is a powerful reminder of the cost of freedom and the opportunities it affords us all. Let’s use our entrepreneurial spirit to support and uplift the veteran community, making this Memorial Day both meaningful and impactful. #MemorialDay #HonorAndServe #VeteranSupport #BusinessResponsibility #CommunityEngagement #AmericanIncorporators

Housing is healthcare.

In a world that often values self-interest & personal gain, it’s important to remember the power of sacrifice & selflessness. Sacrifice is the ultimate act of love & compassion, demonstrating our willingness to put others before ourselves. Whether it’s giving up our time, resources, or even our own desires, sacrifice has the ability to inspire & encourage those around us. The ultimate test of a man's conscience may be his willingness to sacrifice something today for future generations whose words of thanks will not be heard. Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness. What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains & is immortal. #iQor #MemorialDay iQor

It’s Volunteers’ Week 💚   This celebration is a chance to recognise, celebrate and show appreciation for volunteers and all they contribute to our communities and societies. Volunteers’ Week was first established in 1984, by what was then known as Volunteering England, and this year marks the 40th anniversary.    I wanted to take this opportunity to celebrate the work of Samaritans. There are 23,000 volunteers throughout the UK; answering calls, running the 200 nationwide branches; and fundraising to keep this vital service accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.     Samaritans’ vision is that fewer people die by suicide. It’s not only there for moments of crisis, however, but for times when life is difficult and getting you down, when a listening ear might help you before you get to crisis point. And that’s what the volunteers do – listen with empathy and without judgement. As well as listening on phones, on email, online, Samaritans work with prisons, schools, colleges, hospitals, military, railways and other outreach programmes.      In 2023, Samaritans volunteers responded to more than 3.3 million calls, responding to a call for help every 10 seconds!    The Samaritans’ volunteer site is linked in the comments below!    #Samaritans #VolunteersWeek #volunteer #PrideMonth #june #awareness #awarenessdates #awarenessdays #communication #workplace #compassion #commpassion #selfcompassion #leadershipdevelopment #leadership #workplaceculture

Every day, families are torn apart by a system designed to oppress and control. At the Black Alliance for Just Immigration (BAJI), we see the faces behind the statistics—the parents, siblings, children, and other community members whose lives are shattered by America’s punitive policing, enforcement, detention, and incarceration systems. These systems are not mere relics of the past; they are active legacies of a deeply ingrained racial injustice that continues to target and decimate Black and brown communities. Our call for "Abolition Now!" demands respect for human rights and human dignity for all Black people. It responds to the cries of children asking when they will see their parents again, and it battles against a system that profits from the incarceration of Black and brown bodies, perpetuating a cycle of suffering and injustice that echoes the worst chapters of US history. Join BAJI as we fight for a world without prisons—a world filled with love, justice, and freedom. #AbolitionNow Donate today: HTTPS://BIT.LY/DONATETOBAJI
