Our wonderful WINGS ladies recently gathered for an evening of creativity and connection. Together, they crafted 36 beautiful bouquets that were donated to a local senior living center, spreading joy and brightening the residents' day. The event was made even more special, with delicious snacks, refreshing drinks, and wonderful conversations. WINGS is all about empowering women, fostering friendships, and making a positive impact in our community. Thank you to all the amazing women who made this possible; your dedication and compassion continue to inspire! #Chicago #Denver #Orlando #construction #aviation #transportation #constructionmanagement #projectmanagement

"In Australia, only 0.50% of funding reaches Indigenous communities directly. These numbers highlight the significant imbalances that require urgent attention. One of the primary obstacles for Indigenous communities in securing philanthropic funding is the lack of mutual understanding between funders and Indigenous Peoples. There is an urgent need to change the narrative in philanthropy. We must open the doors and embrace Indigenous Peoples as equal partners who bring solutions from the ground up. This shift involves concepts like reciprocity, redefining success from Indigenous perspectives, and promoting truth-telling and advocacy. It’s about capturing and amplifying the stories of Indigenous communities to influence funder practices. Supporting organizations in effectively telling their stories is crucial to highlight their impact and emphasize the importance of Indigenous perspectives in philanthropy" IFIP Sharing Circle Read our latest issue of the Sharing Circle focused on Australia here: https://lnkd.in/gnw_utK5
