As we approach the end of the financial year, you can make a meaningful difference in your local community through a donation to United Way Australia! Our goal here at UWA is to see every child Read, Learn, and Succeed. With your support, we can provide free books to children 0-5 through the Dolly Parton Imagination Library, prepare high school students for the future, and build up our community we operate in! With Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, a child receives a free book every month from birth to age five. For only $108, you can provide an entire year of books to a child. Our books are high-quality, age appropriate, and contain information that helps parents build confidence while reading to their children. 90% of caregivers reported that they read more often and for longer with the Imagination Library. When Kylie first signed her children up to receive books as part of United Way’s Ready to Read program, she was sceptical. After all, her children had never been interested in books before. But once the books began to arrive, she noticed an immediate change. “Simon loves books now, he’ll actually sit down and look through the books. And my middle daughter hated reading. It’s really helped — she will happily pick up a book now, it’s the best thing I’ve ever seen,”” she says. Don’t miss this chance to impact a young life. As the financial year wraps up, consider donating to help future leaders of Australia. Every contribution over $2 is not only tax-deductible but changes lives.

I recently had a conversation with an Executive Director who told me she was looking for new major gift donors. “How many donors do you have in your database?” I asked. “About 14,000.” 14,000?! Most Executive Directors would be *thrilled* to have 14,000 donors in their database. And these weren’t just names and addresses she was talking about. These were actual donors. If that’s your situation, then you’ve got major gift donors right at your fingertips. The key is to find them and cultivate them. Appropriately and persistently and unapologetically. For tips on how to do so, download our e-book on finding the major gift owners you already have. Want to learn more?

Helping sub-$75M business & nonprofit leaders exponentially grow their revenue | Sales • Marketing • Fundraising • Analytics • Fractional CXO • Coaching | Founder & CEO Milton Research LLC
Don't overlook the power of a simple table to find valuable anomalies. That's how I recently helped a small nonprofit secure a 6-figure donation from someone who was already in their database...yet had gone overlooked. The process was simple. I created a table where one column listed the median household income by ZIP. Another column listed actual salary data for each record. If salary significantly exceeds the median household income, it may mean that person lives beneath his/her means and therefore has discretionary income. Additional research can confirm this. That was the case for this nonprofit. This donor had been in their database for years. They never considered her as "high-capacity," however, because they hadn’t dug deep enough to find anomalies. --------------------- To get more content like this, 1. Follow me @Jason Milton ✅ 2.

⚡ One donation, twice the impact! We need your help! Thanks to the generosity of the Chapter One community, on day 8 of our Champions for Children campaign we have raised an amazing 70% of our target, but we still have a further £2,438 to go! Could you donate and help spark a love of reading for more young children facing disadvantage in London? Every little bit helps! 3 reasons to donate: 1️⃣ Donations are matched! To unlock the £4,000 that we have in the matching pot from our generous pledgers, we need to raise £4,000 in online donations. Help us to unlock these vital funds! (Deadline midday 18 June) 2️⃣ You will be giving more children facing disadvantage access to ‘reading influencers’ like you! The more people in a child's life who are involved in influencing their reading, the more likely the child is to become a keen independent reader, which directly improves their chances of succeeding in school and life. (BookTrust) 3️⃣ The number of children reading daily in their free time is 26% lower than in 2005. Reading enjoyment is at a two-decade low. (National Literacy Trust) Donate here: https://lnkd.in/eV9Qrc5D Hear what Eddi Miller, Assistant Headteacher at one of our London primary schools has to say about the impact of the programme on his pupils 👇 Can’t donate right now but keen to help? We’d love it if you could like/comment/share this post with your network! #ChapterOne #itallstartswithliteracy #employeewellbeing #socialvalue #socialimpact #socialmobility #literacy #corporatepartnerships #corporatevolunteering #ChampionsForChildren #LondonSchools The Childhood Trust

Schools may focus on Mother’s Day as a day to celebrate and honor the important role that mothers play in the lives of their children. For a child whose mother is absent, however, these celebrations can be confusing and even painful. What steps can education professionals take to offer support?

⭐World Book Day – UK ⭐ The rest of the world celebrates World Book Day on 23 April, which is St George’s Day in England. However, that’s not the reason the UK has chosen a different date 🤔 Apparently, it’s because it would clash with the Easter school holidays (although it doesn’t this year). If you have young children, you may have helped them to dress up in their favourite book character and read stories together. Having grown-up children, I didn’t know it was World Book Day until today, and I still want to celebrate it because I love reading which continues to make a difference in my life. I also love the World Book Day charity mission “to promote reading for pleasure, offering every child and young person the opportunity to have a book of their own.” Because “Reading for pleasure is the single biggest indicator of a child’s future success – more than their family circumstances, their parents’ educational background or their income. We want to see more children, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, with a life-long habit of reading for pleasure and the improved life chances this brings them.” This is why they work with publishers and fundraise to provide books – from early years to teens - at £1 each. This year there are 15 books available (I’m going for the one about Loki or maybe Inis Mara) 😊 If you’re not raising funds with your kids, you could consider making a donation, like I did – because kindness is contagious ❤️ https://lnkd.in/euvAg2zK How are you celebrating World Book Day? #worldbookday #reading #brandvalues

Work in #nonprofit? Ever been a #donor? Read this: The stats are out there showing that #donorfatigue is real. Giving USA reported that last year for only the 4th time in 40 years total giving by U.S. corporations, foundations and individuals declined. And it makes sense... rising costs of childcare, housing, and a shifting landscape of inflation can make a ton of us (myself included) feel the pinch as we show up for our families. #Generosity is hard to share when we are each feeling the impact in our own bank accounts. So what about #Minnesotans? I have always loved the tradition of GiveMN's #givetothemaxday. There has always been something special about a 🎉 CELEBRATION 🎉 of giving across the state and showing up with community pride (uff-da). But often this day can fall on the backburner for many under the belief that a small one time donation won't make that much of a difference. But I want to you to hear me when I say... these $5, $25, or $100 donations are NOT meaningless. They have immense impact for non-profits... giving is declining... but #GTMD23 this coming Thursday is defying the odds and continues to be a life line for many non-profits bottom line. Please take a moment to give to your favorite Minnesota nonprofit!
