Where Are You Going (WRUG & Co), a growth company’s Post

Two weeks ago, I had the incredible experience of attending Taylor Swift's Eras Tour in Toronto. The energy was electric—thousands of fans singing in unison, creating a shared sense of connection that was both powerful and uplifting. It reminded me how transformative community can be, and how we can carry that same feeling forward by giving back to others. That’s why #GivingTuesday resonates so deeply. It’s a day to unite through generosity, to create ripples of impact that extend far beyond ourselves. At Aventiv Technologies, I’m proud of the way my colleagues leaned into this spirit of giving, finding meaningful ways to support the communities we serve. When people ask about my favorite part of working at Aventiv Technologies, my answer is always rooted in one word: connection. The power of connection drives everything we do—from building innovative solutions to providing technology that can foster opportunities for upward economic mobility when people return to their communities. And it’s this same spirit of connection that made #GivingTuesday such a standout moment this year. Moments that spark connection should remind us that we’re all part of something bigger, and the bonds we build through purpose and action are what make a difference. Let’s keep that energy alive—whether it’s on stage, in our workplaces, or out in the world. Because as Taylor Swift said “No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.” When we collaborate and reimagine connection with each other, the positive impact we create comes back around, lifting us all. https://lnkd.in/g4PyCW-u  

Change has always been about making sure we stand up in the industry.

People are often surprised to learn that they don’t need to have all the details of their charitable giving worked out immediately. A simple solution to consider is opening a Gifting Fund. You benefit from a donation receipt in the same year funds are added to the account, which gives you time to decide when and where funds are then granted to charities the next year!
