Thanksgiving is almost upon us! But while most people are aware of or recognize Thanksgiving, many people aren’t as aware of #GivingTuesday, which falls on the Tuesday just after Thanksgiving. Taking place on December 3rd this year, #GivingTuesday is a global movement that spreads awareness of ways to donate and support the mission and services of different organizations and nonprofits that serve their communities. If this interests you, then consider donating to Baltimore Crisis Response, Inc. (BCRI)!  BCRI is a 24/7/365 crisis services organization that provides treatment and support to Marylanders impacted by mental health, substance use, or homelessness challenges.  If you are interested in giving to BCRI’s cause for #GivingTuesday, visit our website at https://lnkd.in/e_YJwny5. Every bit goes right to their programs that help individuals every day, and any amount – no matter how big or small – goes towards making a difference!  #bcri #GivingTuesday #community #charity #donate 

#TeachableTuesday 👨👩👧👦 Declutter for a Cause 🌟 February is "Declutter For A Cause Month," inspiring individuals to tidy up their homes and donate unused items to charities, highlighting the connections between decluttering, cleaning, and mental health. Here are tips for your family to contribute to a good cause while enhancing mental well-being 🌿💖. Regularly donate. Now that you’ve have successfully helped your family declutter, encourage them to stay clutter-free by making a regular habit of donating things they no longer need or use. The easiest way to do this is by keeping a large basket in a central location so that everyone can easily toss things they no longer need into the basket. When the basket starts to get full, drop it off at a charity of your choice.

Each year, we let the staff vote on which charity to support. This year, it’s Mind. As a company and a team, we are big on supporting mental health. And not just as some shallow tick-in-a-box gesture. It’s another area we genuinely care about. Too many people don't feel they have anyone to talk to or simply don’t know where to turn for support. Mind offers a huge range of support and advice to anyone who needs it. From under 18s to the elderly and from those needing support to those giving it. The work they do is so important, yet, like so many vital organisations, they rely on charitable donations.  This year, they’ll be receiving one from Faber. What do you do to give back? Do you have one or two charities you always support, or do you mix it up a bit? #GivingBack #Construction #Mind #Charity

There are currently nearly 9,000 youths in Tennessee foster care—yet there are only homes for a little more than half of them. Within the first 12 months of being in this program, 30% of those youths are moved through three or more homes. Without our help, the trauma of this unstable environment has been shown to have a negative impact on these youths for the rest of their lives. If you don’t know how to help but feel like this is your calling, some wonderful options to get involved are: 1. Join a volunteer committee 2. Become a corporate sponsor 3. Make recurring monthly donations 4. Become a Friend of Jonathan’s Path 5. Host a fundraiser event (even at a distance!)

Consider donating your time, resources, or funds to a cause close to your heart. 👥 Supporting People: Sometimes, the best support we can offer is a simple act of kindness. Reach out to your neighbors, friends, and family. A small gesture can make a big difference. Together, we can build a stronger, more supportive community. Let’s make this Mental Health Awareness Week a time of connection and compassion. 💚 #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #SupportLocal #CommunitySupport #SmallBusinesses #Charity #MentalHealthMatters #totallypsyched
