Thrive Support and Advocacy的动态

Giving back never gets old. Seeing the impact of the donations received at The Giving Cup on local nonprofits is just one reminder why I will always fight for community banking. It’s not an easy industry to navigate. We have to fight against often unfair competition, scalability of resources, a regulatory environment which too often becomes one size fits all rather than focusing on the large institutions posing the most systemic risk and so many more challenges. The ability to differentiate ourselves as a community bank and remain relevant is a topic in every boardroom, yet so often in our industry fresh ideas are met with fear of change, resulting in banks finding it easier to merge or be acquired. Even on the hardest days, I am reminded we are here for more. I look at the students and teachers receiving recognition, fire departments receiving needed gear, those with disabilities receiving needed services, and children served at North Star receiving hope. Each check represents donations from merely cups of coffee. The little things do add up…so far to over $50,000 with ??% being returned to organizations like North Star. What we stand for and how we give back as an industry is absolutely worth the fight. ???? #whatbankingcanbe #banklocally #whereyoubankmatters ??

Advocacy in Action is a series of essays demonstrating the impact of charitable nonprofits as they advance their missions through advocacy. Last week’s essay featured a collection of past editions that focused on the importance of nonprofits being nonpartisan advocates for their communities: https://bit.ly/3MtIJwI #Nonprofits #Nonpartisanship

????News Update: Montana is set to increase oversight on nonprofit hospitals to ensure they provide community benefits in exchange for their tax-exempt status. New rules will require these hospitals to report their charitable acts, yet specifics on acceptable giving are still being defined. ?? This move aligns with a national trend to enforce transparency and accountability. #Healthcare #Montana #CommunityCare #NonprofitHospitals

Last week, Alton’s New York office took part in our Pledge 1% volunteer day initiative, once again teaming up with West Side Campaign Against Hunger (WSCAH) in Manhattan to help alleviate hunger in the city.? ? WSCAH’s crucial work ensures all New Yorkers have access with dignity to a choice of healthy food and support services. In support of the organization’s community-focused mission, the Alton team helped prepare 1,490 bags of fresh or shelf-stable food to serve more than 600 families in New York.?? ? Each year Alton supports Pledge 1% https://lnkd.in/eW_ANjH, where we not only donate 1% of our revenue, but also 1% of our time to charitable causes.???? ?

As I work to aid Charitable children institutions in transitioning towards family and community care, I often come across organizations dealing with children aging out of the care system. These children often lack independent living skills and encounter numerous obstacles, sometimes without supportive community networks. It's disheartening that they have to leave the system without the support and love of a family. Facilitating the search for suitable families for these children is crucial in ensuring their continued growth and well-being beyond institutional care. #carereform #familycare
