High Foundation’s Post

Servant leadership is our compass, guiding us on a journey full of opportunity, innovation, and optimism that can help to shape the future of our community. When putting this value in action, we listen carefully and actively collaborate with community partners, coworkers, and peers. We are committed to operate with a high level of integrity and transparency and approach our work with humility.

We believe that everyone deserves dignity and respect. We envision a future where everyone in our communities has the opportunity to be successful, recognizing that everyone is starting from a different place. In the spirit of this belief, we make it a practice to include the people who are most affected by an issue in our dialogue as we seek out solutions.

Since the historic transfer of ownership of High Industries Inc. to High Foundation just one year ago, we have embarked on a season of visioning and strategic planning to further hone our priorities. With the release of our Annual Report, we are reflecting on the progress that has been made over the last year. On the pages of the report, you will find stories of celebration—the lives that have been changed and the doors that have been opened to a brighter future, transforming our communities one individual at a time. It is our community partners who are the heartbeat of High Foundation. Through their efforts, we continue to take significant steps toward impacting lives through transformative initiatives. We invite you to read the Annual Report at highfoundation.org. #highfoundation #highcompanies #philanthropy #nonprofit #givingback #education #healthservices #humanservices #artsandculture #historicpreservation #environment #sustainability #socialenterprise #socialgood #dogood #giveback #businessforgood #community #lancasterpa #cityoflancaster #lancastercounty #lancastercity #lancastercountypa #centralpa

SUSTAINABILITY is one of the pillars supporting our mission. We are actively building the systems needed to help global communities set up and accomplish long-term goals enabling them to one day be thriving and self-sufficient. #giveback #goodcause #allforone #charity #education #volunteer #endpoverty #sustainability #community #makeadifference

As part of Sefa’s ongoing commitment to contributing to better and more affordable housing, Sefa is asking Philanthropists “how could we use collaborations and partnerships to make a significant contribution to the affordable housing market?”    We know that the current approach to financing is not working - help us understand if there is an opportunity for philanthropy to play a greater role in fit-for-purpose solutions by completing our survey. We have extended the timeline to complete the survey - it only takes 14 minutes and you will be helping us understand the role that philanthropy does and could play in the affordable housing space in Australia.   We anticipate that the results of this work could support philanthropic organisations to consider how to use the tools that are potentially available to address those issues that are prioritised across the sector.   Survey Link: https://lnkd.in/g8GD9heQ Philanthropy Australia   #affordablehousing #philanthropy #socialimpact

Huge thanks to Shay Kaur Grewal at BBC London for your passionate support of the Margins Winter Appeal; highlighting the urgent need for The Margins Project's immediate and long-term services of food, support, community, and empowerment - helping the rapidly growing number of those in critical living crisis in our community. Listen back to her chat with Head of Margins, Amanuel, from today's show from 2:36:50 at https://lnkd.in/egkk9W8P Learn how you can help at bit.ly/MarginsWinter In Amanuel's words: "We run, twice a week, a Drop In service for people who can't afford to have food, showers, and laundry. Yesterday, 62 people arrived here for just a warm place. For us, as a community organisation, we need to look after our most vulnerable." "We need to look at the underlying issues; what are the immediate, intermediate, and long-term services that we need to provide for the communities. We need to say, as a community, enough is enough." "Union Chapel is not just a venue; it is the centre of the hub. It is a community organisation. It is a space of belonging." "It is an ongoing process; an area that we are really geared to support and to change."

📌 [Report] - Social Connectedness and Generosity: A Look at How Associational Life and Social Connections Influence Volunteering and Giving (and Vice Versa) This report, the second of two reports that the Do Good Institute has produced for the Generosity Commission, focuses on the ways in which interpersonal relationships and participation in community associations and organizations influence the decisions people make about donating money or contributing their time to organizations. The report found that people who volunteered in the previous year were more likely to give in the current year by 14.5 percent, and people who gave in the previous year were 9.3 percent more likely to volunteer in the current year.    Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/dWQ9aBaf . . . . #GivingTuesday #GivingTuesdayAfrica #UbuntuGiving #AfricanPhilanthropy #CommunityEmpowerment #GivingChallenge #Generosity #GivingTuesdayIdeas #GivingIdeas #Generosity #Sustainability #GivingEveryTuesday #AThousandWaysToGive"

Age-Friendly Lancaster City is an opportunity to bring people of all ages together to rethink our neighborhoods and take action to make them more inclusive and respectful of every generation. Age-Friendly Lancaster City is the Lancaster Downtowners’ effort to connect generations, organizations, and resources to enhance the lives of older adults and ensure an inclusive community where all ages flourish. This collaborative initiative marks the first time businesses, government, CBOs, and residents have come together to address these domains of livability with a lens focused on aging. As older Lancaster residents desire to remain in their homes and neighborhoods, we want to respond with support by increasing accessibility, safety, and connection in our community. High Foundation is proud to partner with Lancaster Downtowners in this initiative. #highfoundation #highcompanies #philanthropy #nonprofit #givingback #education #healthservices #humanservices #artsandculture #historicpreservation #environment #sustainability #socialenterprise #socialgood #dogood #giveback #businessforgood #community #lancasterpa #cityoflancaster #lancastercounty #lancastercity #lancastercountypa #centralpa
