We grow for good. It’s a core value at our company. We want to be the best, but we want to do a lot of good along the way. Watching this hurricane coverage? Worried about the people you know? What are you doing to help? There are plenty of amazing organizations out there, but the Guaranteed Rate Foundation will be matching every dollar donated with another dollar with 100% of the donations going directly to helping and rebuilding. All expenses of the foundation are covered by the company and all donations go directly to those who need it. You donate $100 and it automatically becomes $200 with the match. Can’t donate?

Good Morning SACDS! Many of you have reached out and asked how you can help your colleagues, classmates, and friends, effected by the horrific wildfires in Southern California. The CDA Foundation has set a special fund just to help members and their teams who need assistance due to the fires. Donation instructions are below. Let’s show our dental family in LA that SACDS is here for them. The Foundation has opened the Southern California Wildfire Relief Fund to help our colleagues and community members displaced by this disaster. The fund is now accepting monetary donations from anyone who wishes to support this effort, and one hundred percent of your tax-deductible donation will go toward those in need.    How to donate: Specify the amount of your donation. Select the frequency of your donation (one-time). Choose “Southern California Wildfire Relief Fund” from the drop-down menu. Fill in the remaining fields and select “continue” to proceed with payment. (Volume-related delays are impacting page load times. If you experience a delay, try refreshing the page.

First and foremost, my thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by Hurricane Helen. For those looking to help, please take this important step first: Verify that the organization you intend to donate to is legitimate. Many scammers exploit such crises to take advantage of generous donations. To confirm the credibility of a charity, visit these three websites: - IRS.gov - CharityNavigator.org - GuideStar.org These resources will give you the information you need. If the organization isn't well-known, take the time to research them before making a donation! #HurricaneHelen #DisasterRelief #SupportSurvivors #GiveBack #CharityCheck #HelpHurricaneVictims #DonorAwareness #LegitCharities #DisasterAid #CommunitySupport

Has it left your social/ news feed yet? -- Fund Raising for Western Carolina residents — Are We Gonna Kiss? Kimchi will be at Rebus Works on Friday (Oct 11th) from 10 am - 2 pm. We will sell a limited batch of homemade vegan kimchi on a donation amount that will go directly into local organizations and the people's funds of those directly impacted by Hurricane Helene. *PICK UP ONLY AT REBUS WORKS* When the news cycles moves on and supply drives end, the people across 20+ counties will still be dealing with losing their homes, their livelihoods - and for some - their entire communities. This market will support the people's underlying funds. PRE ORDER INSTRUCTIONS FOR NC RESIDENTS: **DO NOT PRE ORDER IF YOU ARE PICKING UP, PRE ORDER IS FOR A FUTURE BATCH** You can pre-order a 12oz jar of kimchi by sending funds (minimum suggested donation $10) to: Venmo: @pearlchoi318 Cashapp: $Choip318 *** you MUST include your EMAIL & say "PRE-ORDER", or else it will be considered a free donation. AWGK Kimchi is an App State alum who resides in Banner Elk, and trusts in the hollers around her to use the funds well. (Brady Koch with the poster design)

Here’s a great way to assist in relief efforts after the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene. There are six organizations you have the option of donating points to.

Recent storms have devastated small businesses, and recovery will take time. A one-time donation helps, but ongoing support can make a lasting impact. With our new recurring donation feature, small business owners can get financial support for the long haul. With recurring donations, organizers can: • Raise money every month with ease • Build powerful, lasting support for ongoing recovery efforts • Keep donors engaged and connected as businesses rebuild It’s never been easier to ensure steady progress. If you're a small business owner, let your community know they can now contribute monthly to provide the ongoing momentum needed to recover. If you'd like to help, support one today -- like this fundraiser that aims to provide direct funding to 18 small business owners in Old Fort, North Carolina, whose businesses were badly damaged by Hurricane Helene https://gfme.co/4eXdren

If you are considering donating to charities and relief efforts for those in need - such as after a hurricane - be mindful and do research before sending money.
