Words simply cannot express the gratitude we feel for everyone who had a part in our 75th Diamond Jubilee. To our sponsors, attendees, in-kind sponsors, volunteers, committee members, staff, and supporters, you made our Jubilee an impactful and truly special night! Together we raised over $215,000+ to support youth, health, basic needs, and self-sufficiency for our funded agency partners and other United Way of Washington County-East initiatives. Thank you for being a part of our community – we are stronger because of you! Photo credit: Nicole Larie Photography #uwwcediamondjubilee #celebrate #75years #uwwce

Today we launched a new self help tool for people facing family violence - a Home of Your Own. It's about understanding your rights, and taking action. We know that family violence is a leading cause of housing insecurity for women and children, who represent three-quarters of people accessing homelessness services. We also know the numbers of people at risk continues to grow and that the impact of violence and homelessness radiates out into the community. This tool was co-designed with women who've lived experience of family violence and homelessness, together with frontline community workers. By answering a few anonymous questions about their situation, renters facing family violence can learn about their rights, and be directly supported to take practical steps in maintaining or accessing safe housing, including by creating personalised documents to communicate with their rental providers.? Please share with anyone who might need it.

This World Braille Day let’s champion accessibility and opportunity for all.? Braille is more than just a system of reading; it’s a gateway to education, independence, and empowerment. Despite its importance, only about 10% of visually impaired individuals globally have access to Braille resources. This highlights the urgent need for greater awareness and action.? At #NethradhamaSuperSpecialityEyeHospital, we’re not only dedicated to fighting blindness but are also committed to raising awareness about Braille and the vital role of Eye Donations in transforming lives. Did you know that if you donate a pair of eyes, it can give vision to six people? Let's build a brighter, more inclusive tomorrow, where no one is left behind. #WorldBrailleDay #BrailleAwareness #Inclusivity #NethradhamaCares

A common question we have received in the past is, "Where do you find these women who have been trafficked?" Oftentimes, it can be through our police partners, medical partners, referrals, churches, and through contacting us themselves through our website by email or calls. A common misconception is that we "rescue" these women, but that is not what we do. Usually, either someone who has had contact with the victims will refer them to us or these women find us on their own terms. Victims and survivors may have difficulty asking for help and sometimes it can take months or even years for them to be able to trust us. We meet survivors where they are and Covered's mission is to empower every survivor toward healing and self-sufficiency.

Sounds fun…
Our Houston Area volunteers teamed up with two of our Weatherford Walks charitable partners, Small Steps Nurturing Center and PTSD Foundation Of America, and dedicated their efforts to giving back to the local community! The One Weatherford Team had a fantastic experience as they rolled up their sleeves, cleaning up classrooms at Small Steps and assisting with garden maintenance at Camp Hope. A big thank you to our volunteers who participated in these events, and to our charitable partners for hosting us. We are looking forward to Weatherford Walks 2024! #OneWeatherford #WeatherfordWalks #Community #Volunteer #GivingBack

The holiday season is a perfect time to reflect on what we can give back to our communities. Your charitable strategy should not only support those in need but also bring you and your family a sense of fulfillment and community engagement. Tailor your giving to align with your values, making sure your contributions have a meaningful impact. Consider supporting causes that resonate with your personal beliefs or invest in local community projects where you can see the direct results of your help. Research organizations thoroughly to ensure transparency and effectiveness, and remember that even small contributions can collectively lead to significant change. By fostering a culture of generosity, we inspire others to participate in the spirit of giving, turning these acts into lasting traditions. And when you need help creating a charitable giving strategy that resonates with your family's values, trust our team to help. #HolidayGiving #CharitableGiving #CommunityImpact #GrantCapital

Tip Tuesday! If your organization relies on holiday business between Thanksgiving and Christmas, these tips may help you boost your sales, donations, or anything in between. These pointers are just as applicable now as they would be during other times of the year, particularly if you have promotions around Valentine's Day, Easter, Memorial Day, or anything in between. #HolidayMarketing #marketingtips #seostrategies

The Philanthropy Roundtable reports this year's #GivingTuesday results. The good news first. In spite of Giving Tuesday coming later in the season (Dec. 2), Americans donated a record $3.6 billion. The bad? The number of participating households decreased. Community-based charities suffered the most. Museums, however, may have an edge. Museums are trusted organizations fostering social connection and volunteerism. What specific actions can museums use to reverse the trends? https://lnkd.in/eGaKXwva

Excellent insight which speaks to the aspirational heart of true community engagement.
?? ?? ?? “Giving back to your community [contributing to society] is not just a charitable act; it is a powerful force that drives positive change and shapes the society we live in. The importance of giving back lies in its ability to foster belonging, address social challenges, facilitate personal growth, strengthen community resilience, and inspire future generations. As individuals, we have the opportunity and responsibility to contribute to the betterment of our communities.…” Matt East
