Welcome back!
One of the easiest ways to get involved in giving back to the community is to participate in collaborative advancement. This can be as simple as giving $5/month to a worthy organization who is doing work in your area of interest. Express who you are through the causes you support. There is an incredibly diverse array of wonderful groups out there that are in need of help, and every little bit matters. When you partner with causes that you are passionate about, you reap the benefits of forming relationships with really cool people that you might not have ever met otherwise. Those relationships can grow into something meaningful that changes your life. It’s a true win-win.
If a monthly commitment does not appeal to you, there are plenty of other project based opportunities to contribute to. Whether it’s home repairs for those in need, short mission trips, or volunteering at a fundraiser, you can make a brief commitment of time that makes a big difference to those you help. If projects don’t appeal to you either, then there is always disaster relief. Between mother nature and tragedies caused by people, there are a lot of hurting folks out there that need our help. A lot of us giving a little time or money can go a long ways towards overcoming life-altering events. If all you ever give in your entire life is disaster relief, you’ve still made a big impact.
Until next time, I’ll be praying for you to contemplate what strategic partnerships you can sign up for that will change their world – and yours – for the better.
