On this #GivingTuesday, I would love to remind you to donate to an organization with a mission you value, which will be a hard choice because there are so many worthy causes. I have a lengthy list of nonprofits that I love to support, but today I am going to focus on a new nonprofit in the OKC metro that has had a personal impact on my life this year. This picture is a prime example of why representation matters. My son, Beckham, utilizes a g-tube to receive his daily nutrition. It's not super common for us to see other kiddos like him unless we are surrounded by our medical family community. It's easy to connect with those individuals online, but not always in person. It takes quite a bit of effort to leave the safety of our home, especially in the midst of sick season (which is 24/7 for us it seems), but there is something so special about being in a room of people who get it. This is where Ultimate Shift comes in to help. Ultimate Shift coordinates events in our community to connect friends and family for fellowship and fun! We apply macro concepts that tend to happen once a year or once in a lifetime, to create more frequent micro community opportunities for individuals with disabilities and their families. We use simplistic creativity to help minimize isolation and open up a world of new experiences for friends and family who can thrive with a little extra support. If you are looking for an organization to support this Giving Tuesday, I would love for you to consider a gift in Beckham's honor to Ultimate Shift. You can donate at https://ultimateshift.org/.

Giving Tuesday was created as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires millions of people togive, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. This can be many things - helping a neighbor, advocating for an issue, sharing a skill, or giving to causes. Everyone has something to give, and every act of generosity counts. As you consider the causes you might give to, we ask you to consider the NH Center for Justice & Equity and help us reach our goal of $5,000.00 in Giving Tuesday donations. Your investment enables the NH Center for Justice & Equity, for example, to: Research and disseminate data and actionable intelligence on New Hampshire’s changing demographics, languages spoken and disabilities profiles. Create convening opportunities for social and economic justice organizations across the Granite State. If it is within your means to invest in the NH Center for Justice & Equity, we hope you will find your way to our donations pageand help us reach our goal! When you #Give2GoodTrouble, you invest in a NH for all. https://lnkd.in/e22RM6tE

Today's #BarnaHighlight comes from our new report Inside the Urban Church, created with World Impact Inc. To capture a modern-day picture of the urban Church’s relationship and engagement with its surrounding neighborhood and community, Barna directed research in eight major U.S. metropolitan areas. One of our many findings is that church engagement and community engagement are linked. Attendees of churches in urban environments are twice as likely to report volunteering with a non-profit compared to unchurched people in the same area (26% vs 13%). Urban churchgoers are also twice as likely to report participating in community projects and events (28% vs 14%).

A message from co-founder Shreya as we celebrate LAI's 4th anniversary this month. "Four years ago, my grandmother - who was self-isolating in her apartment in London at the time - received a letter from a friend. Watching her light up at this act of kindness inspired my sister and me to try and reach out to even one senior in our Boston community. Can you believe that since then, our kitchen-table project has grown into a truly global mission that has delivered smiles to thousands of seniors? In just four short years, over 75,000 people have chosen to write letters filled with hope and connection to more than 85,000 seniors. We have written in 33 languages to seniors in 7 countries. Most incredibly, together, we have written over 825,000 letters! In other words, we have brightened 825,000 days and fought against senior loneliness in 825,000 little ways. None of this would be possible without you. I know each of you has a story as to why you chose to volunteer with LAI, and getting to hear them is one of my favorite parts of leading this organization. Whether you were inspired by an incredible grandparent - like my sister and I were - or just stumbled upon us and liked the idea, we are so grateful for your support."
