Yesterday, 25 of our incredible employees had the honor of lending a hand at The Singletons, a nonprofit that advocates for single-parent families in their battle against cancer. Employees helped prep meals, packed bare necessities and non-perishable bags, assembled birthday boxes, filled backpacks with back-to-school items, and helped clean the community center. #Volunteer #Arizona #Community

For the last #75years our staff have been creating an inclusive community! #DirectSupportProfessional Taye shares, “People with disabilities don't let anything hold them back. They don't let anything get in their way. They strive for whatever it is that they want in life. Working for Easterseals changed my whole train of thought. I look at people differently now. I don't feel like it's work here. I just feel like it's family.” Learn more about our programs and how you can get involved: https://bit.ly/3SL9TUp #getinvolved #donate #advocacy #hiring

If part of your holiday season includes giving to important causes, I want to share that, out of all the worthy organizations that deserve support, racial justice nonprofits need us more than ever. Many large philanthropies have walked away from their justice portfolios. It is part of what Stacey Abrams and Julián Castro describe in their article, "It’s Open Season on Civil Rights. Philanthropy Must Not Retreat" as the “great retrenchment on racial justice funding”. I am giving to Embracing Equity to ensure that they do not join the growing list of justice organizations being forced to close their doors. Embracing Equity has developed the vital expertise needed to support schools, other organizations, and individuals in making the concrete changes we need for a more just world. I can wholeheartedly vouch for the excellence of Embracing Equity's work, but you are also invited to learn more about their effectiveness (https://lnkd.in/gJG6uGfK) and an one example of how their support is changing schools (https://lnkd.in/gEKKtMq6). Please join me in supporting their goal of raising $30K by 12/31/23 by giving whatever you can and passing this message on. “Our nation faces no more important charitable purpose right now than to defend the right to fight racism.” —Stacey Abrams and Julián Castro #DiversityInTheWorkplace #DiversityAndInclusion #InclusiveCulture #WorkplaceInclusion #DEI #InclusionMatters #InclusiveWorkplaces #EmbracingEquity Daisy H.
Do people instinctively want to help? How easy would it be to be a mentor? Merrell partnered with BBBS and did a social experiment to find out. They got an answer to their question. See the video above! A bit about BBBS: Since 1904, Big Brothers Big Sisters has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is incredible potential. As the nation’s largest donor- and volunteer-supported mentoring network, Big Brothers Big Sisters makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers ("Bigs") and children ("Littles"), ages 5 through young adulthood in communities across the country. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people. A bit about Merrell: #Merrell exists to share the simple power of being outside. We believe the trial is for everyone. Our goal is to provide thoughtfully designed, rigorously tested products that over-deliver on performance, versatility, and durability. https://livetribe.tv #MentorshipMatters #NonprofitHeroes #ChildrensCharity #HelpingHands #PositivityPower #OutdoorAdventures #FamilyTime #MentorshipJourney #GiveBack #SpreadJoy #NatureLovers #FamilyFirst #YouthEmpowerment #CommunitySupport #PositiveImpact #ExploreOutdoors #FamilyBonding #MentorshipProgram #NonprofitImpact #ChildrensFuture

A message from co-founder Shreya as we celebrate LAI's 4th anniversary this month. "Four years ago, my grandmother - who was self-isolating in her apartment in London at the time - received a letter from a friend. Watching her light up at this act of kindness inspired my sister and me to try and reach out to even one senior in our Boston community. Can you believe that since then, our kitchen-table project has grown into a truly global mission that has delivered smiles to thousands of seniors? In just four short years, over 75,000 people have chosen to write letters filled with hope and connection to more than 85,000 seniors. We have written in 33 languages to seniors in 7 countries. Most incredibly, together, we have written over 825,000 letters! In other words, we have brightened 825,000 days and fought against senior loneliness in 825,000 little ways. None of this would be possible without you. I know each of you has a story as to why you chose to volunteer with LAI, and getting to hear them is one of my favorite parts of leading this organization. Whether you were inspired by an incredible grandparent - like my sister and I were - or just stumbled upon us and liked the idea, we are so grateful for your support."
