Community programs that bring together older adults (65+) and young people (-18) have resulted in fewer depressive symptoms and better emotional and mental health. This is one of the ways that we can address loneliness and increase collective efficacy, social capital and social cohesion. #rethinkaging

Hey friends! 🌟 As we navigate the journey of life, one beautiful aspect that often goes underrated is the power of giving. In a world that sometimes seems to move at breakneck speed, taking a moment to pause and extend a helping hand can create ripples of positive change that extend far beyond the initial act. 💖 Why Give? Giving is not just about financial contributions; it's a mindset, a way of life. Whether it's sharing your time, skills, or resources, giving fosters a sense of interconnectedness and community. It's a profound acknowledgment that we are all in this together, and our actions have the power to shape a better world for everyone. 🌈 The Ripple Effect Have you ever noticed how a single act of kindness can set off a chain reaction? It's like dropping a pebble into a pond – the effects radiate outward, touching lives in ways we may never fully comprehend. Your generosity might inspire someone else to pay it forward, creating a positive cycle that continues to grow. 🌱 Nurturing Empathy Giving is a powerful tool for nurturing empathy. When we engage in acts of kindness, we step into the shoes of others, understanding their needs and challenges. This empathy becomes a driving force for compassion, fostering a deeper connection with the world around us. 🌍 Building Stronger Communities Communities thrive when individuals come together to support one another. Whether it's volunteering at a local charity, helping a neighbor in need, or contributing to a community project, each act of giving strengthens the bonds that tie us together. Together, we can create a web of support that uplifts everyone. 🌺 Small Acts, Big Impact Remember, the size of the gesture doesn't always correlate with its impact. Small acts of kindness, when multiplied, can create a wave of positivity. Holding the door for someone, offering a genuine smile, or simply lending a listening ear can make a world of difference in someone's day. So, let's embrace the spirit of giving! Whether it's through monetary donations, volunteering, or simple acts of kindness, let's be the catalysts for positive change in our communities and beyond. Together, we have the power to create a world where generosity is the norm, and kindness knows no bounds. 🌟✨ #GiveGenerously #SpreadKindness #RippleEffectOfGiving

Far be it for me to tell any of you what to do with your money, but let's be honest...that sweet Cyber Monday deal you scored yesterday? Cancel it. Let the fridge light blink for another year. Embrace the fact your dryer eats up a sweater every third load (also...stop drying your sweaters). That flat tire? It's still street legal. Those fourteen streaming subscriptions? Keep whatever one the Real Housewives is on and cancel the rest. Now you're rich. Rich I tell you! And there is nothing rich people love to do more than donate to worthwhile causes and then brag about it on social media. So without further ado...donate to Leader Valley and then tell everyone else to as well! Leader Valley helps ensure youth across the Cedar Valley are being taught leadership lessons they can practice in their everyday lives AND prepares them for life after graduation. The program instills a sense of purpose into students, and if you click through the awesome stories on their LinkedIn page, I dare you, DARE YOU I SAY, not to be moved by the changes this group has inspired. If for whatever reason LinkedIn's nonsensical algorithm doesn't show you this post until after Giving Tuesday, no worries. They accept donations (and do awesome work) year-round!
