What does your business do for staff at Christmas - apart from the boozy Christmas party? 🎄🍷 How about doing something special for their children this year? We can help! At Caring Cooks, we’re offering personalised Santa letters delivered straight to children, grandchildren, or loved ones. All we ask is a small donation from you as the employer to support our Food or Fuel Campaign, which provides vital help to families in need this Christmas. It’s kindness for your staff and the wider community - a win-win! Here’s how it works: 🎅 Send an email to your team (we can even provide the wording for you). 🎅 Your staff fill out a quick, automated form (takes 2 minutes). 🎅 We take care of the rest, and the magic arrives in the post! It’s an easy way to spread Christmas cheer, show your team you care, and earn major brownie points as an employer - all without adding to your workload or stretching resources. If this sounds like something your business would love to do, please reach out to me or visit: https://lnkd.in/etvcfMPY. Let’s bring a little joy this Christmas - booze optional! 😉 #CallingAllBusinesses #SantaLetters #CommunitySupport Association of Jersey Charities

🎄 **This holiday season, in the spirit of giving, we would love for you to consider the La Fondation Aspiration.** 🎄 Imagine this: Every $30 donation brings us one step closer to reaching our $100,000 goal to support youth facing food insecurity. And as a thank you, your contribution enters you for a chance to win an incredible **$4,000 travel voucher**! Let’s put those odds into perspective: - **Odds of winning the lottery?** 1 in 14 million 💸 - **Odds of winning a $4,000 travel voucher with us?*1 in 3,334 *Exponentially better! And with larger donations the odds only get better.* But here’s something even more meaningful: 🌟 **Odds of feeding a hungry child? 100%.** 🌟 Your support directly impacts lives. Help us reach our goal and make a difference for the youth who need it most. Join us in this season of giving by donating today. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eDQf6TzF Thank you for being part of our journey to feed hope, one meal at a time. #AspirationFoundation #SeasonOfGiving #MakeADifference #CrowdfundingForChange #FeedTheFuture #100PercentImpact

This month's nonprofit Spotlight is Community Services Clearinghouse: I got to sit down with Aubry Severe and learn about the ways this organization can help, and also hear about the impact they've already made.

It’s that time, y’all—#GivingTuesday has arrived, the nonprofit world’s rebuttal to the consumerist nightmare of Black Friday. While Giving Tuesday is recognized globally, for me, it symbolizes the profound impact of grassroots community support—the belief that, together, we can effect real, lasting change. Big Big Table Community Café is proof of this power. In a world that prioritizes profit over people, spaces like ours are rare—when they should be the norm. Food insecurity exists not because of scarcity, but because of systemic inequities. At BBT, we are committed to fostering a space where mutual aid and community care take precedence over market logic. Because EVERYONE deserves a seat at the table. Community work is becoming increasingly difficult to sustain. If you are willing and able, please consider supporting Big Big Table today. This is about more than charity—it’s about solidarity, dignity, and justice. Learn more and donate here: https://lnkd.in/emMCXqks In a city that claims to be full of good neighbors, choose to be one not just today, but every day. And remember… it’s better to give than to receive—especially when it’s tax deductible ;) #GivingTuesday #FoodJustice #CommunityCare #SolidarityNotCharity #BuffaloNY #NonprofitImpact #PayItForward #EverybodyEats #MutualAid #DignityForAll #SupportLocalNonprofits #EndFoodInsecurity #BuffaloNY #SocialJustice #BuildingCommunity
