"National Philanthropy Day is celebrated annually on November 15th. This day signifies the importance of working together for the common good. Philanthropic deeds come in all different shapes and sizes — charitable giving, volunteering, etc. — and on National Philanthropy Day, no act of kindness goes unnoticed.
It’s that time of year! Halloween is here. Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Hanukkah, Christmas and Kwanzaa will all be here before you know it. Celebrations with family and friends will fill our homes, churches and synagogues, classrooms, and offices. And your mailboxes, email accounts, phones and social media platforms will also soon be inundated with those early Black Friday deals and holiday shopping coupons!
Think back to when you moved to your current location. When you first moved in, maybe you met a few neighbors and then eventually began to meet more neighbors. And after a few years you know most of your neighbors (or at least what kind of car they drive, how many children they have, and who mows their lawn at 7 a.m.). You have now built a pipeline of neighbors that hopefully you can call on in an emergency, chat with as you arrive home or leave for the day and, if you are lucky, socialize with throughout the year.
Yesterday I had the opportunity to spend time with my friend Nicholé. We originally met when I assisted a colleague with a strategic planning effort for the organization Nicholé runs and, since then, have continued to connect on both personal and professional levels. As we caught up at a local coffee shop, it struck me that throughout our conversation we both referenced connections that could, ultimately, help each of us gain knowledge or achieve specific goals.
Whether you’re ready to expand your organizational capacity and move forward with purpose, or just want to talk shop, we’d love to connect.
