“If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else.” - Booker T. Washington Charity fundraising, ever done any? I was out today gathering the last of the donated items for the main fundraiser 💲 banquet‘s silent auction table for one of our local charities. It was a beautiful sunny but cold (2 degrees C) day, nice for a walk around town. (I love a WIN-WIN opportunity!) It struck me as I was walking, that over the years I have done this many times. Different charities, different cities, different companies 🗄️and businesses. It’s a good way to learn about the local companies and businesses that support local charities. With so many individuals and businesses experiencing higher costs and in some cases lower revenues, there have been cutbacks 📉to donations. You may also be cutting back on the amount of giving from the level you may have been able to do in the past. All of this brings me around to one of the aspects of a well-rounded life - it includes community. You can refer to an online group as community, but in this case I am referring to local community. How do you “show up” in and for your local community? 🫴 Do you donate items or funds to support their work? 🫴 Do you volunteer in some way (donating time and skills)? 🫴 Do you attend events that help them raise money for their work? 🫴 Do you volunteer your time to support children’s non-profit activities like sports or hobbies? 🫴 Do you use some of the services offered by a local charity or not-for-profit like a local Canada Day or July 4th community event? Giving to others is a great way to 🎉 enrich your own life. Supporting and helping others has been shown in studies to make us feel good. When it’s local, It also supports the area where you live and helps keep the activities, services and opportunities available to your community.🏘️ What’s your favourite local charity or not-for-profit? 👇 Share in the comments below, let’s see the mix of favourites! _____________________________________________ Shelley Dagorne Life Coach #lifechange #coachforwomen #womenscoach #lifecoach #lifeplanning

As 2024 gets well underway, I'm looking forward to making it another successful year of fundraising here at Simon on the Streets. If you're looking for your next challenge or event, whether as a business or an individual, we’ve got so many exciting things in the pipeline. In the coming weeks and months we’ll be releasing further details about some of our scheduled events so far: 🔴 Taking on a race - The Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon, Leeds Half marathon and Leeds 10k 🔴 The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge 🔴 Joint Firewalk Event with Leeds MIND 🔴 Simon’s Big Sleep Out If you’re interested in taking part in any of the running/walking events above, please just get in touch, and I’ll be happy to provide further information. Don’t forget that you can always come up with your own fundraising ideas, whether that’s an office fundraiser, a birthday fundraiser, or anything else that you think could help to make a difference. At the end of 2023, research from Shelter showed that homelessness in the UK has risen by a massive 14%, with at least 309,000 people being without a place to come home. This includes 140,000 children. If you think you and your business could work together with the team here at Simon on the Streets to make a difference to the lives of those who need our help the most, then I’d like to hear from you. #charity #homelessness #fundraising
