"Remember -- your love for bacon can make a big difference!" Funny, but true. There is a serious side to this too. The Walworth County Food and Diaper Bank is a great organization, and symbolic of many which are responding to food insecurity in our communities. In our particular case our Bank serves, at some point during the year, about 5 percent of our county's population - distributing $5M of food across 16,000+ guest encounters. All of this is made possible by roughly 120 volunteers whose work seems never ending. Those we serve are primarily referred to as ALICE (asset-limited, income-constrained, and employed). In other words, neighbors in situations where one car repair, medical bill, or unexpected expense can force a difficult decision about food. A full 40 percent of those we serve in a year come only once. 70 percent receive food from us four times or less in a year. In our county, and probably yours too, up to 35 percent of our residents fall into the ALICE classification. Those are really staggering numbers when you think about them. And food for thought as well (sorry). If all those numbers seem daunting, come and celebrate some bacon with us! 😁 #foodinsecurity #foodbank #neighborshelpingneighbors

Econautics believes that the most critical issues of today are all interconnected. For example, you can't achieve health equity if patients don't have access to clean air to breathe, water to drink, and healthful foods to eat. That's why we are actively seeking out and #learning from other #nonprofits in the City of Fort Worth throughout our #reorganization this year. We are #listening to established nonprofits about their challenges, successes and opportunities. We are working to create new #partnerships and to incorporate this #feedback as we design our programs. #Together, we can create #transformationalchange. This week, we want to say thank you to Taste Project Founder Jeff Williams for his time! If you haven't heard of this awesome organization, Taste Project is a nonprofit with a mission to: "feed, educate, and serve our community so they may “…taste and see the Lord is good.” Psalm 34:8. ...Our first project, a non-profit restaurant, focuses on healthy, quality meals made from fresh ingredients. Our menu has no prices. This is a give and take concept.

Happy Friday!! 😀 IT'S NATIONAL DONUT🍩 DAY!! Author | C. Knighten Every on the 1st Friday in June, we celebrate National Donut Day! One of the most loved fried confections nation wide.....we get to indulge on this day without guilt! HISTORY OF NATIONAL DONUT DAY: We can credit the Salvation Army for helping us celebrate this delicious day! During World War I, a group of volunteers were tasked with providing the soldiers with comforting meals at the frontlines. With limited means to cook, they decided that donuts were their best option. In fact, utensils and pots to cook in were not easy to come by and they discovered that helmets would fry up seven donuts at a time! Later, these brave volunteers were given the nickname “donut lassies”. National Donut Day was established in 1938, as a way to honor those brave members of the Salvation Army for coming to the aid of our troops during World War I. Today, many donut shops appreciate the opportunity to celebrate National Donut Day on the first Friday of June. Many donut shops offer specials or even a 'free' donut on this day! GREAT WAYS TO CELEBRATE THIS DAY: 🍩 Bring Donuts to the Office! If you want to be a hit with the boss and the rest of your team, bring in some hot Krispy Kremes! MMM, MMMM! 😋 🍩 Try a new recipe! Truthfully, donuts are not that difficult to make at home. There are also several types of donuts, from dough and 'cake' to potato🥔donuts....yes, you read that right: Potato Donuts. Look up the recipe and don't waste your leftover mashed taters next time! 🍩Try something new! If you have more than one donut shop in town, give another shop a visit. You never what delicious confections they may have cooked up! So, what is your favorite! Regular glazed, raspberry filled, or something more exotic like a maple bacon? Whatever it is be sure to give a shout on social media 📲for your favorite shop....they will certainly appreciate it! #deancommercialrealestate #commercialrealestate #propertymanagement #investors #retail #medicaloffices #leases #propertyinvestors #warehouses #huntsville #madison #athens

Did you know that indirect methods can be powerful tools for developing relationships with donors? In my conversation with RJ Caswell on Holy Donuts, we explored some surprising strategies for fostering long-term support from donors. Sometimes, it's not always about the face-to-face interactions, but about finding unique and indirect ways to engage with your supporters. From handwritten notes to personalized videos, these thoughtful gestures can make a lasting impression and strengthen your donor relationships.

🍩 ⭐️ Happy Belated Donut Day! ⭐️ 🍩 It's not always vital that you talk only about your main business. Incorporating a smattering of fun and light content can be engaging as well. 😋 (Of course, "fun and light" *should* be relevant to your business and industry...we just think life is more delicious with donuts in it!) Personally, I grabbed a glazed chocolate cake donut at Dunkin (unless it's Pumpkin season 😉) - what about you? Did you catch Donut Day? Maybe you can make up for it today! #SmallBusinessMarketing #OnlineMarketing #SocialMediaMarketing
