We all make New Year’s resolutions with good intentions – lose 20 pounds, or quit smoking, or get organized. But let’s face it, the majority of us end the year in the same place we began it (or possibly with another 5 pounds of holiday weight.) In 2016, why not set a reasonable goal that is actually attainable? Here are a few ideas that everyone can achieve.
- Give Time – We are all busy, but chances are you have at least one hour this year (hopefully a few more) to give to a charity that matters to you. Whether you are building houses in the community, answering the phone in an office, or serving dinner at a local shelter, the time you give allows programs and services to continue. Sign up to volunteer at LFCS today!
- Give Talent – Pro-bono services make it possible for non-profits to direct their budgeted dollars to those in need. From attorneys and accountants to cooks and custodians –nearly all talents can benefit the day to day operations of a non-profit. Learn more about lending your talents to LFCS now!
- Give Treasure – Jobs, families and other commitments may make giving time and talent difficult. If you have the means, make a financial contribution to your favorite organization. From $1 that feeds a child for a day to $100,000 that underwrites a year of programming, every amount makes a difference. Consider making a donation to LFCS today!
No matter which resolution you chose, you will make an impact within your community and feel great too! Here’s to making the best of 2016!
