Be Kind - Be Grateful…the next 5 actions you can take to make the world more kind and caring. #34 – Create an alumni group where colleagues share stories of kindness and its impact, inspiring others to pay it froward and continue the cycle of good will. #33 – With Christmas coming, if you have toys that your children do not play with anymore, consider giving them to charities or goodwill stores so less fortunate children can have a toy under the tree this year. #32 – If you have unredeemed loyalty points that will not be used, if available, consider donating them to charity rather than having them expire. #31 – Hosting a holiday party, rather than say to your quests, please bring nothing. Help your local food bank and ask them to bring a non-perishable food item. Set out a box at your front door and see what your family and friends give back to the community. I think you will be surprised. #30 – Put together a ‘Health and Happiness Box’ for a teacher, pastor, or a person in need. This box might have some home baked cookies, healthy snacks, candle, bath salts and a note of thanks.

With the festive season approaching, it's time to ask yourself: What does my team want for Christmas? → A Christmas party? → A basket of goodies? → A voucher? Or maybe is it... → a donation to a charity of their choice? → additional days off and more flexibility? → maybe a bonus? If you haven't just had the talk with your team, here's your reminder to do it and find out what would feel more special for them. #TeamManagement #EmployeeSatisfaction #WorkplaceCulture

Giving doesn't have to end with #GivingTuesday! There are many ways to give and any support you offer makes a difference any time of year. Let's keep on giving! 🫶 Give your time! Volunteering with an organization can be a big help whether it's for an afternoon, a day, or a long-term project. 🫶 Share your support! When your favorite organization posts about their programs, fundraisers, and announcements, help spread the word by sharing with your circles. 🫶 Donate items! Gently used extra toys, extra clothing, extra food, and even extra household items like kitchenware and handy tools can be used by someone else. What other ideas do you have to "give?" #southdakotagives #forsouthdakota #giving #donating #volunteering #getcreative #nonprofit #givingseason #endofyear #keepongiving *Image is of a person holding a clipboard over a box of donated fresh food. An illustrated icon of a hand holding a heart is in the center with the words "keep on giving" below it.

You can be like Jason and not talk about any of your charitable efforts, but know that partnering with people, causes, or organizations in need IS part of a #PublicRelations or charitable giving strategy.

We’re donating to different events, and any time anybody asks us for donations, we support them, whether it be contests or giveaways. . . on a weekly basis, we provide vegan meals to a Downtown Eastside shelter. We do a lot of community work—we just don't talk about it that much."

What to do with smaller donations that don’t quite fit into a live or silent auction? 🤔 Bundle them into baskets 🎁. It’s amazing how a few small items—like candles, chocolates, or wine glasses—can be transformed into something special and valuable when curated thoughtfully 🛍️ Here’s how it works: by putting together themed baskets (think “Spa Day,” “Gourmet Treats,” or “Coffee Lovers”), you can create an appealing package that guests are excited to buy on the spot 🧖♀️🍫☕. It’s an easy way to turn smaller donations into big wins for your fundraising event 💰. Baskets offer something for everyone and give attendees who might not be bidding in the main auction a chance to contribute. Plus, they add a little extra sparkle to your event! ✨ So next time you’re organising a fundraiser, remember this **fundraising tip**: small donations, when grouped creatively, can make a BIG impact. Let’s put those items to good use and maximise every contribution! 💪 #FundraisingTip #CharityEvent #EveryPennyCounts #charityauctioneer #auctioneer #fundraiser
