It is fantastic when businesses like this put the people they serve in their #community first. It is hard to often build in this into a businesses corporate social responsibility but when they do the benefits to their brand and employee happiness goes a long way. Thanks again for your ongoing support #InvisiblePovertyMK

I've served on the board of Georgians for a Healthy Future for several years now. Too often, Georgia has policies in place that don't allow people to thrive, particularly if you are not wealthy.

We are counting on 𝟖𝟎 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 to make a gift in support of our Housing is Health initiative. Your gifts will kickstart the next phase of our work, which will include: ⭕ Build support among state leaders to fully fund the Georgia Housing Voucher Program! This program ensures that Georgians with mental illness have stable, affordable housing that helps keep them healthy and out of crisis. ⭕ Set up a working group that brings together people with disabilities, caregivers, housing experts, advocates, and Georgia’s state agencies overseeing health and housing to examine and promote ways to improve and expand housing for people with disabilities. ⭕ Bring together housing and health advocates to identify opportunities for collaborations that will improve health and housing at the same time! We’re more powerful together. https://lnkd.in/e7rnN9PY

My 3-year-old points to the charity bucket: “Please, can I have some of that? Me: “No, that’s money for Children In Need.” My 3-year-old thinks for a moment, then says: “I need it.” Watch out for this one 😂 Children across the UK are facing greater challenges than ever, with mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression rising and high levels of poverty leading to inequality and lack of opportunity.

🌟 A Powerful Reminder from Leon Guy 🌟 “I think sometimes people hesitate to help because they feel like their contribution won’t be enough. But the truth is, every small step matters. Every dollar, every item, every gesture adds up.” – Leon Guy, Facility Manager at Crossroads When you take that first step to help, no matter how small it seems, it makes a difference. 💖 🔹 Leon shared a story: someone came in and wanted to donate $10, unsure of how much it could really help. But that $10—added to others—becomes part of something much bigger. It could feed families, provide dignity to someone in need, or simply offer a moment of relief. “It's not about the size of the donation, it's about taking action. Every bit helps. And together, we create change.” At Crossroads, we see the direct impact of these small steps every day. The challenge may feel overwhelming, but every act of kindness makes a real difference. 🔹 Join us in taking that step. Whether it's a $10 donation or a few hours of your time, you can help create change. Together, we can make sure no one has to go without. https://lnkd.in/e5qDSd3S 👉 Donate today and be part of the solution. Every contribution counts. #CrossroadsCommunity #SmallActsBigImpact #GiveHope #EndingHunger #SupportOurMission #ChangingLives #FoodSecurity #DonateNow
