?? The Dakota Gives Team was honored to volunteer with Cradles to Crayons, supporting their "Gear Up for Winter" program. We spent the day sorting clothing for children from newborns to 12 years old, ensuring they have the essentials to stay warm this winter. ?? The need is urgent: Philadelphia has the highest rate of deep poverty among major U.S. cities, and 40% of children in the Greater Philadelphia region live in poverty or low-income homes. ?? At Dakota, we’re committed to making a difference in our community. We are proud to stand with Cradles to Crayons in their mission to fight childhood poverty.

?? Fundraising News Update: Singapore Strengthens Family Office Appeal with New Co-Investment Policy In a move to secure top talent, Singapore’s Monetary Authority (MAS) has rolled out new regulations allowing employees of Single Family Offices (SFOs) to co-invest alongside their employers. ???? Family offices are booming in the Asia-Pacific, and this policy is designed to align economic interests, adding a compelling incentive for professionals in the industry. With family offices often allocating 45-65% of operating costs to talent, these new rules could make a big impact. Singapore and Hong Kong are seeing intense competition for skilled employees, often vying with hedge funds and investment banks. MAS’s new flexibility could be a game-changer for recruitment and retention, bolstering Singapore’s position as a family office hub. ??
