Are you considering a medical alert system for an aging loved one? August is MedicAlert Awareness Month. Are you wondering if they will wear it or not? Emergency alert devices are useless if they are not worn. It is also a waste of money. Talk through any perceived social stigmas they may attach to alert devices, and let them know that they are simply safety tools that provide more senior independence - not feebleness. Learn more, this Tuesday, on this website we want to share with you. #ADesormier #TuesdayTips #ElderLaw #Caregivers #ElderCare #MedicalAlerts

Fundraising should be fun! Starlight Children's Foundation partnered with Sony and Ghostbusters fan groups nationwide (who knew?) on a peer-to-peer fundraising campaign using the Classy platform that exceeded their $40,000 fundraising goal to create and deliver Ghostbuster hospital gowns for kids. This is an excellent example of a corporate partnership that still feels supporter-led, fun, and ties directly back to the mission. By focusing on established, passionate fan groups and aligning them with a cause in a tangible way, they avoided the trappings of most corporate social responsibility (CSR) campaigns. Sony could have easily donated this amount themselves (and maybe they still should!), but by opting for a peer-to-peer format, they put fan groups in the spotlight and empowered them to show the world how generous and awesome they are. This ultimately benefits Sony more than just dropping a one-time gift of $40K themselves; because of this campaign, fans of the Ghostbusters franchise are now bonded even more closely together. Using great nonprofit software like Classy is the cherry on top. Classy's P2P product is world-class, and we've used it to great effect at Media Cause with clients like Tap Cancer Out to raise millions of dollars by pitting individual fundraisers and fundraising teams against each other for good causes.

Prisma Health Children's Hospitals' annual Good Night Lights event is a heartfelt example of community solidarity, bringing joy to hospitalized children during the holiday season. On December 3rd, the hospital will be illuminated with the community's support as families and volunteers participate in the Toy Drive Parade and light up towards the children's windows. Dr. Robin LaCroix underscores the positive effect of such community gestures on children's health and morale. This event isn't just a celebration; it's a vital reminder of the importance of kindness, especially towards those facing health challenges over the holidays. With parades in both the Upstate and Midlands regions, Prisma Health Children's Hospitals is embracing the spirit of unity and compassion. I am touched by Prisma Health's commitment to fostering a supportive atmosphere for their young patients. The Good Night Lights initiative is a powerful testament to the community's capacity to uplift spirits and make a significant difference in the lives of others. As professionals, we understand the impact of collective action and support. I encourage you to reflect on the value of community involvement and consider participating in or supporting events like Good Night Lights in your area. Let's discuss: How can we, as individuals and businesses, contribute to such meaningful initiatives?

MONDAY MISSION MOMENT: Each year, 350,000 people in the United States experience an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA); and approximately 90% die. CPR, if performed immediately, can double or triple the chances of survival. AHA’S DALLAS IMPACT STORY: The Health Strategies team at the American Heart Association recently worked closely with Dallas Youth Sports to develop an Emergency Response Plan that would ensure the organization, which serves 3,700 low-income youth ages 4-18, their families, and 900 volunteer coaches in underserved communities of Dallas each year, would have protocols in place in case of an emergency. As part of this plan, all volunteers and staff will be trained in CPR seasonally, and CPR classes will be available for families to take as well. Nearly 5,000 individuals will be impacted through this work in the first year alone. Your dollars make a difference right here in Dallas. ❤️Please consider making a difference and donating to the American Heart Association through my Leaders of Impact* campaign at: https://lnkd.in/gUuSUTbH Your support is appreciated and will help to save lives! . . . *What is a Leader of Impact? Every year across 150 cities, community leaders step up to join Leaders of Impact in an effort to bring the work of the American Heart Association into the community. Launching on World Heart Day, nominees across the country work to build campaign plans, recruit teams and inspire their networks to support the AHA’s lifesaving mission. #AmericanHeartAssocation #LeadersOfImpact

Have you wondered why we often talk about monthly giving? Do you ever think: How could even a small gift each month help? Why does it make a difference if I give once or twice a year versus each month? A monthly gift enables us to plan. We can count on a steady stream of income each month so we can plan our operations accordingly. It means we can hire permanent staff, retain consistent clinic days week to week, supply our pharmacy with the same formulary month to month. Most importantly, it means we can be a reliable partner for our patients who count on us. Did you know that more than 300 patients seek care from us every month? Imagine if we could match that number with just as many monthly givers! We currently have 30 faithful monthly givers ❤️ Thanks to each and every one of you! Let's do this! Are you ready to directly support health and healing in the highlands? A monthly gift of any amount has an impact! See just how far your contribution will go: $10 a month provides a patient with a teeth cleaning $25 a month provides a chronic illness patient their monthly check-up $50 a month provides breakfast and snack to two students for a month $100 a month provides referrals and social services to 20 families Follow the link below to begin giving today… https://lnkd.in/gYr3x9mZ
