Right now – until 12pm Thursday 22 August – EthicalJobs.com.au is matching your donations to CSMC. That means there's just three days left to double your impact! When single mother families in crisis need support, they contact CSMC. Our support workers assist single mother families with expert support, advice, and information, when they need it the most. With the cost-of-living hitting even average families, the children in low income families are really missing out. Single mothers are doing all they can to protect their children, but the kids still feel the hunger and the cold – and the responsibility to try and hid expenses from their mum. CSMC provides expert specialist support, with the unique addition of having lived experience of being single mothers. They are trusted; they are experts; they are a safe place for single mothers to turn. Funds are urgently needed for emergency relief to assist single mothers to feed their children and maintain their housing. So please, if you are considering donating to a charity that supports families in need, now is the time to do it. https://lnkd.in/gYqi4RXu

This is Jacqui, the Support Services Coordinator at Girikon's Client Organisation: Council of Single Mothers and Their Children (CSMC). Jacqui and her team provide single mothers with the specialist support and information that CSMC is known for. Now Jacqui is speaking out and asking for your help. CSMC's Support Line Workers say they have never had as much unmet demand as now, and the need has never been more acute. The need for support and information has always been high, but demand has skyrocketed due to the cost-of-living crisis. Single mothers who call CSMC's Support Line need help now, but the sheer volume of calls means that many are having to leave messages and wait for a callback. CSMC urgently needs to employ an additional part-time Support Worker to make sure single mother families in dire circumstances get the help they need: https://hubs.li/Q02zplf-0. #CSMC #EOFY #Donation #MakeChange #MakeChangeHappen #MakeADifference #NotForProfit #SupportWorker #SingleMothers

With 10 Million individual taxpayers in our country, not including businesses, imagine the impactful change we could create by each contributing just $2 per week to a registered charity. This simple act would amount to $1,040,000,000 annually, matched as a tax deduction by the ATO. By pooling our resources to one overarching charity, we could have $2,849,315.07 daily to support causes like disease research, homelessness prevention, and infrastructure repair. Australia, the power is in our hands to make a significant difference beyond what our elected officials can achieve. It's time to take control and work together for a better future. #CommunityImpact #ChangeMakers

Ahead of an upcoming general election, the UK’s five largest children’s charities (Action for Children, Barnardo’s, The Children’s Society, the National Children’s Bureau and NSPCC) have come together, supported by iHV and more than 150 organisations, to make sure the next government has a plan to put Children at the Table. Together, we’re asking the next Government to: • Work together to improve the lives of babies, children and young people • Put children’s needs and voices at the heart of decision making • Spend more of the nation’s wealth on babies, children and young people Act today and join almost 25,000 others in signing the petition calling on the next Government to make good childhoods a national priority: https://buff.ly/3vOmAVq #ChildrenAtTheTable

It’s an unfortunate reality that domestic abuse happens within our country. It’s even more sad to realize that it happens so often that there are large nonprofits that take care of family members in these situations. Safe Harbor in Greenville “provides pathways for people impacted by domestic abuse to survive and thrive, and raises awareness of domestic abuse through community engagement and education.” Their services include a 24 hour hotline, emergency shelters, transitional housing, counseling, case management, and much more. There are quite a few ways you can get involved. You can donate in terms of money but you can also donate standard living items like kitchen or household goods, diapers and clothing for children, school supplies, and other needs. You can also volunteer to help carry out the vision of Safe Harbor. Consider helping families be free from the constraints of abuse. #greenville #volunteer #nonprofit

#donoradvisedfunds funds (#DAFs) and the East Bay Community Foundation mission-based funds are a great way to give to your local community. Consider making an online cash gift if you want it to count towards possible 2023 tax deduction. Otherwise, consider your philanthropy budget for 2024 and start preparing in January - that way you can fund your favorite cause areas in a steady manner throughout 2024 without having to wait until year-end. A #philanthropy budget is a great way to stay on target with your mission-based interests & cause areas versus responding to “asks” throughout the year and realizing you might have budget shortfall for areas you personally care about. #donoradvisedfunds #donors #taxdeductions #missiondriven
