Meet Coach Baldwin from Aliso Niguel High School Flag Football. A week ago, I randomly walked onto the campus and ran into their staff and parent liaison. They were about to pay a high fee + percentage to another vendor and I mentioned what we do. IT is the WHY of what we do that pulled them in and caused their minds to pause and reflect. Yes, we help teams keep all that they raise through a unique model... But it is the impact of what this can do for days/months/years for a team. Check out what Coach had to say below that I filmed on their launch day. Yes, their fundraising numbers are soaring, but that's not what this post will be centered on. More and more programs are tired of giving away too huge of a split that their kids help to raise... Time is one thing coaches and group leaders can't get back and we maximize this for your program to ensure your program gets the funding it needs and deserves. What other programs in Orange County and San Diego need this impact? EVERY SINGLE ONE... Let's collaborate and do something different with your program this year! https://lnkd.in/gvddHgCF

Everyone at BBF loves rugby. As a business, we get the importance of teamwork, and on a personal level, we know what it means to be part of a herd. The Bristol Bisons RFC are trailblazing inclusivity in rugby and showcasing that everyone has a space and place on and off the pitch. Their energy, enthusiasm and voice for access to sport without prejudice is incredible. And that’s not even mentioning the fact that they are clearly acing the game and always bring the energy to an event! That's why we jumped at the chance to support them with £8,000 towards their training costs over two years. BFF is donating £100k over the next year to help raise up Bristol communities. For the best part, we gift cost-price beer and help our community sell this to generate 3-5 times its value. But we know that beer is not always appropriate and sometimes, groups need hard cash, in real time, to achieve their ambitions. That's why we choose 3 or 4 groups each year and support them with a cash donation; one of them is the Bristol Bisons. Want to find out if the Bisons are your herd? Join them for a trial session on Monday 1st July as part of the Bristol Pride fortnight. Sign up via bisonsrfc.co.uk or if you've missed this window, check them out on socials: instagram.com/bisonsrfc and facebook.com/bisonsrfc Don't forget, every BBF beer you buy gives back to projects and communities like the Bristol Bisons. And as they say themselves, we are #StrongerAsAHerd DRINK WITH PURPOSE #BristolBeerFactory #brewedtogive #standindependent #drinkwithpurpose #bristolcharity #bristol

It’s honestly surprising – and a little disheartening – to see the lack of interest in supporting a project that could have such a transformative impact on young people across the Midlands. We’re in a region filled with some of the most innovative and profitable organisations in the country, yet the enthusiasm to give back to the community through initiatives like this seems to be missing. Where are the forward-thinking, community-orientated business leaders who truly want to leave a legacy? This is an opportunity to empower thousands of youngsters, improve their physical and mental health, and inspire them to reach their full potential. It’s about so much more than just table tennis—it’s about creating opportunities, building confidence, and shaping the future of our region. The Jack Petchey Foundation has proven how successful this kind of initiative can be in London and Essex. Why can’t we replicate that here in the Midlands? Surely, there’s a business leader out there who understands that the biggest impact isn’t just measured in profits but in the difference they make to people’s lives. If we’re serious about building stronger, healthier, and more inclusive communities, now is the time to step up. Let’s not let this opportunity slip away! #TableTennis #MidlandsInspiration #NextGeneration #YouthDevelopment #JackPetcheyFoundation #SportsForAll #Midlands #Midlandsmanufacturing #midlandbusiness #inspirationalleaders

Some food for thought as you watch the amazing athletes at the Olympics this year. "In a survey of about 1,000 American athletes in the Olympic and Paralympic pipelines, 26.5% reported individual incomes under $15,000 a year." We love watching our country's athletes compete on the world stage, but remember that most are 1) not receiving extra $$$ from the big media and corporate endorsement $$, and 2) even if they get a boost in the Olympic weeks, they've gone through YEARS of hard work and struggle to get there. At Spid Werkz Foundation, we are here to help extraordinary athletes bridge financial and support gaps. With help from you, we can change the story for future athletes and use sport for good across the world! Please consider a tax deductible donation to support Olympic and Paralympic athletes! https://lnkd.in/eqacx6-2

Summer sun has arrived so it is time for tennis. Please read our short blog. As with investing, it is not winning every point but consistency of returns that counts. https://lnkd.in/djN7kttn #charity #notforprofit #thirdsector #investing

Hey CNN, this headline has a misplaced modifier. Will the parents be watching their son — or Flavor Flav! — compete in the Olympics tonight? The picture of a victorious Flav pumping his fists in the air also lends the reader to thinking it's the legendary rapper who will be competing, not the son. 😅 Let me know if you need to hire a Copy Editor. 😉 🙃 #copyediting #funnyheadlines #journalism #editing
