#CreateALegacy What kind of legacy do you want to create? For Kristina and Isaac, it’s about standing up against violence, championing women’s rights, and spreading messages of empathy and unity. This year, Legacy’s year-end campaign is collecting funds to distribute to deserving alumni whose local projects have potential for immediate community impact. We aim to collect $10,000 to distribute amongst 5-10 communities. These funds will enable these outstanding alumni to expand the reach and impact of their transformative work. Your donation today fuels powerful projects that uplift communities and has rippling effects across the globe. Support changemakers who are transforming the world—one action at a time. https://lnkd.in/eWHwwNrG

Coming Together as a Community: A Story of Generosity and Impact In every community, there are stories that remind us of the incredible power of kindness and collaboration. One such story comes from our teammate Brian Salisbury supporting Ralph “The Shoe Guy,” who work hard together with many others in our community to collect and donate shoes each year for the Syracuse Rescue Mission. This year they collected 43,120 pairs of shoes. This achievement is more than just a number—it’s a testament to what can happen when individuals step up to address critical needs. The Syracuse Rescue Mission serves as a lifeline for many, providing support to individuals and families facing tough times. Shoes, something many of us take for granted, can make a world of difference, especially during harsh winters. Through the hard work and dedication of Brian and Ralph, thousands of people now have access to this essential resource. This story is a powerful reminder that each of us has the ability to make an impact. Whether through donating, volunteering, or organizing efforts in our own neighborhoods, we can all play a role in creating positive change. It doesn’t take monumental resources—it takes heart, purpose, and a willingness to come together as a community. Let’s be inspired by Brian and Ralph’s example and think about how we can contribute to the well-being of those around us. Small actions, when multiplied by many, can lead to extraordinary results. Thank you to everyone who played a part in this incredible effort. Your generosity and teamwork show what’s possible when we lead with compassion. #CommunityImpact #GivingBack #SyracuseRescueMission #110metalworks #KindnessInAction

$65 million can change lives. But HOW you use it matters most. MacKenzie Scott's recent donation to LISC is a game-changer. (https://lnkd.in/ePm-YNgM) As a nonprofit leader, I've learned: • Big gifts require big vision • Community input is crucial • Transparency builds trust LISC's approach? → Invest in affordable housing → Create vibrant community spaces → Advance racial equity This isn't just about money. It's about empowering communities to shape their future. What would YOU do with $65 million to improve your community? #SocialImpact #CommunityDevelopment

Yea, today is the day where we are overwhelmed with appeals from organizations. It is an important day. But, supporting an organization, or a cause, is not just about what you give today, its about building better. A few days ago I re-posted an idea to rebrand non-profit organizations as social-profit organizations. This concept is ringing louder to me every day. The work of non-profit organizations- the staff, the funders, the beneficiaries-- is to create a better something: human, community, system, etc. Our society depends on these organizations. So, I encourage you to make a donation today and/or in the next couple of weeks. You have a lot of options and, personally, I would ask you to consider supporting, Foster Progress. With your support we empower more foster youth to beat the odds and succeed in higher education. Your donation helps provide: 📚 Scholarships for tuition and books 🤝 Mentors to guide students through challenges 🏫 Advocacy to navigate college systems You can donate here: https://lnkd.in/g4mzzANh
